Before We Arrive

How to Prepare for
Your Pumping in Clearville

A little prep on your end saves time, keeps costs down, and helps us do the best job possible. Here's what we ask:

1

Know Where Your Tank Is

If you know the general location of your septic tank, that helps us get started fast. If you don't — no problem, we'll find it.

2

Expose the Lids If Possible

If your tank lids are buried, digging them up before we arrive can save you time and money on the service call. Even partial access helps.

3

Clear the Path

Move vehicles, brush, lawn furniture, or anything between our truck and the tank. We need hose access within about 100 feet.

4

Note Any Issues

Slow drains? Odors? Standing water in the yard? Let us know when we arrive — it helps us look for the right things.

About septic care in Clearville?

What should Clearville property owners know about septic care?
Clearville is a small, rural community in Monroe Township, Bedford County, located along Route 26 near the Fulton County line. Properties throughout the Clearville area are served exclusively by private septic systems, and the remote, heavily wooded terrain means access for emergency service can be difficult if you let maintenance slip. The area's mix of year-round residences, seasonal hunting cabins, and agricultural properties means septic systems see varying levels of use — some overworked during hunting season, others sitting idle for months. Both scenarios require regular pumping and inspection to keep systems functional. Smith's Septic Tank Service delivers reliable septic pumping to even the most remote Clearville properties and can set you up on a maintenance schedule that fits your usage.
