Septic Tank Pumping in Knoxville, TN
Routine pumping to keep a septic system working — emptying the tank before sludge and scum reach the drainfield.
Knoxville, TN
Most of Farragut's built-up areas are on sewer, but the town's lakefront and large-lot pockets are on septic. This page is for those homes — the shoreline and acreage parcels, not the subdivisions along Kingston Pike.
The First Utility District of Knox County (FUD) provides sewer across most of the built-up portions of Farragut, and serves about 33,000 sewer customers across its service area. Not every lot has access to public sewer. The septic pockets are the Fort Loudoun Lake shoreline lots, large-acreage parcels, and the fringe north of I-40/75 — sampled homes on septic include Windlass Road, Nighbert Lane, McFee Road, Jenkins Lane, Crown Point Drive, and Foxford Drive. The built-up subdivisions along Kingston Pike and around Turkey Creek are FUD-sewered. Whether a specific lot can connect to sewer can be checked with a FUD Service Availability Request.
