Local septic companies compared side by side on what each one publishes on its own website: prices, license numbers, guarantees, emergency service and the services it offers. No reviews, no paid placement.
40 septic companies in 5 areas. Ordered by a published score: one point for each of the 14 services a company lists on its own website, plus one point for each of 7 facts you can check there. How we score.
Companies differ in what they do. Each list shows the companies whose own websites say they do that work.
1 of 39 companies publish at least one dollar price on their own website. See every published price with its source.
Ordered by a published score: one point for each of the 14 services a company lists on its own website, plus one point for each of 7 facts you can check there. No company can pay for its position or a badge.
Reviews are easy to fake and hard to verify, so this site does not publish them. Every company is scored instead on facts you can check on its own website, such as whether it shows a license number, publishes prices or offers a written guarantee. The same method applies to every company.
No. Listings, scores and order are free and cannot be bought. The publisher, Backroom Ops, also sells marketing help to businesses; buying it has no effect on any listing or score.
1 of the 39 companies we reviewed publish at least one price on their own websites. Every one is on the published prices page, with its source page. Ask what the price includes, such as tank size, digging to the lid and disposal.
13 of 39 companies display a license or registration number on their own websites. We record the number as shown but do not check it with the licensing agency, so look it up yourself before you hire.
