Love the "Honk for chocolate milk" on the truck, lol, there's one around my area that says "Yesterday's meals on wheels"
One in my area says “Stool Bus”
My guy is chromed out with a 🍀on the back says “smells like money”
@@Lawnmower-os5pg same
I legit check my UA-cam feed everyday for just your videos. You seem like a chill guy and a hard worker.
Surprized the owner didnt mow in preparation for your visit.
Aloha from Hawaii🌺 yes love the longer videos!
Aloha! I follow a couple pumpers from Hawaii! I want to go and work with them and get some content 🙏
The house was probably only being used for vacations and such before, so they didn't really need a big tank. But now the new family wants to live there full time- they need a full time septic system lol
Just moved from central texas to NC and had a septic tank for 20 + years . Did the required monthly maintenance with a pod and emptying every 4 years and never had a problem. Your videos are educational and ty for the work you do. I could never do it!
Up here in Long Island NY, we almost exclusively use cesspools, where the effluent is allowed to escape through holes on the side of the tank. It’s a much less maintenance heavy system, although it most definitely does still need to pumped periodically.
And that's why cities back before plumbing always had outbreaks of cholera, typhoid fever, dysentery, botulism and a host of other nasty diseases. Cesspools would contaminate ground water and wells would be dug into the contaminated water and used.
@@GGigabiteM cesspool and septic field both have equal potential to do that. You know little
@@GGigabiteM well, that’s why there is a code of at least 75 feet between leaching field and well water!
I used to work for a septic guy who liked to tell the ritzy up scale customers: your shit is my bread and butter lol.
It's interesting seeing how other places do stuff different, up here in Maine I've never seen an above ground clean out.
Pennsylvania is the same. Unless you request they put one in, it never happens. The people that do request one are usually the RV type so they can dump their tanks at home lol
Here in Oregon, most places that were built after around 1995 or so are pretty much guaranteed to have an above ground clean out between the house and tank.
Before that time frame, it's pretty much hit or miss.
Good video . just had my tank cleaned out last week from my local service provider. Cost $200 for 1,200 tank and filter cleaning. From Wisconsin
If it's yellow,
Let it mellow.
If it's brown,
Flush it down.
Best way to conserve water!
If it ain't yellow enough, they will never notice that you forgot to flush.
"I don't know what's worse, digging through tall grass or digging through rocks."
I like how digging through shit and grease doesn't even make it to the list.
Wisconsin and it's been 90s and 55% humidity... Two weeks ago it was 30s...
Buy a phone pouch that you can hook a lanyard,LoL it's painful to loose a phone to gold mine.
Been listening to a jazz fusion band lately, actually prog rock/jazz fusion, they’re a band called Thank You Scientist
Smells like gold.
There’s money in them poop tanks
I love the “chill tunes” you play in the background in the videos.👍
I’ve seen leaks from the house cause the same issues. Had a guy call and said people were wanting to charge him around 7k for new lateral lines and he ended up having a toilet leaking. Fixed the leak and three weeks later he called back and said his problem was solved. $20 part also cost big time
Goodness. He makes long videos, too. Time to get to watching.
And.hat crust buster is a very good piece of machinery
Love these videos man
Thanks for watching brother
WOW, have you dropped a phone in any of these tanks? I would put mine on a tether of some kind.
Mall Wave is fire, if your into that you should check out some Dan Bell videos
Tall grass sucks to dig through.
Smells like money!!!!! You need to change banks if your money smells like that buddy! Just playing with ya. Keep the great educational vids and content coming.
You do a great job I'm in Florida is is real humid 🥵
Years ago my grandparents had an old metal tank
I'm thinking you should invest in a DeWalt battery powered weed eater would make digging easier.
Sometimes when you see tall green grass around the septic tank it can also mean the lid has failed and needs to be replaced aka plastic tanks
Move videos more videos more videos!!!
Love your videos
Thanks for watching!
Is it normal for a drain field to surface some sewage when there is high water level around it in the spring?
It’s too bad your 2hrs away; I would so call you for the job.
No crust buster 😂. !!!! No poop smoothie 😂!!!!!
I've been dealing w some ancient relics my self driving a sucker truck
I set my friends on fire 🔥
Maybe add another line to the drain field
Central TX here, great content! How can I tell if my drain field is done? Thank you!
Cool Intro!
Hell yeah buddy
Like the smiths, try ‘the Cure’
You should have a contest where someone could come be your assistant for a day!!
Love your videos man i have a question. I live in florida and in the area where ny leach field is the grass is yellow at times do you know why that is?
New System sounds like it makes more Sense since it appears the Drain Field is Permanently Clogged. 🤔👎
I've been thinking about brunt boots im a landscaper.
Hi bro liken the content. Here in malta 🇲🇹 i do the same jobs . What kind of vac pumps are you using over there
Made me nervous seeing you hold your phone in there. I'd end up dropping it eventually. 😵💫
I’m really thinking about doing this in my area Virginia. I have my wastewater operator license and on-site sewage. What would I need to do to run a truck?
I would like to do this I’m 12 so thanks for inspiring me and how do you stand the smell?
Drop that phone in the tank be a bad day....
11:47 but couldnt it also be clogged leach lines or a clogged outlet baffle? Clear those clogs and they could be good to go right?
>it’s a small tank ….
hey it’s a good size!
what lake
So what was the second clean out just to the right of the air compressor used for?
You can't repair the hoses?
Have you ever dropped your phone in a tank on accident?
tastes like money... tell them to make their own risers...
I’d smoke a joint wit bro!
Check out the Canadian prog rock - RUSH
why are all the caps off the cleanouts?
With them open it reliefs pressure and can drain into the yard instead of the house
@MultiTurbospeed I just took mine off because of a backup it's helped til I can get the clog cleared and figure out if my leach field is a problem or if it just needs roto ruttered. I suspect crushed/broken pipes and tree roots.
How can I see the inside of that tank
So is there a price difference to have you pump a small tank vs a larger tank??
Here in Eastern NC, it’s roughly $0.25/gallon, so a typical 1000 gallon tank would run $250 to be pumped down. Most places will charge by the gallon, so yes, a small tank would be less, but would most likely have to be pumped more often, so you don’t save anything usually
What about the other side
Hi
What’s up Bud. Hope you have a good week
I bet you make and take all calls on speaker
Why no risers is beyond reason. Their cheap.
They aren't cheap at all. Like $600
I placed my own 2 foot riser and cover. Used a shovel. 1 hour, $100.
Very Good!... #45✝ {10-16-2022}
