A Puyallup homeowner called us out to pump a 600-gallon two-compartment wooden tank. The contents were extremely thick, but the more important finding was the tank itself: the floors of both compartments had largely gone, with soil visible where they should be.
A Bothell homeowner had dug out part of the tank before we arrived, but the lid to the second compartment was still buried. Our technician excavated it to reach the whole two-compartment tank, and approximately 1,500 gallons were pumped.
