The state publishes its approved septic tank pumper list and its certified installer list.

What to ask before you hire

  • Is the company itself certified, or only the person on the truck.
  • Which certifications the tech holds, and whether they cover the kind of system you have.
  • Which county office pulls the permit. The permit follows the property, not the contractor.

The exact certifications, the exam and the fees differ by state and they change. Check the current rules with Georgia Department of Public Health, Environmental Health Section before you rely on any of it.
