Part-Time Sewer Cleaner
 ✖  |
As water regulations have tightened across the country, reducing the gallons of water used per toilet, it has become more of a challenge to keep septic lines flowing. That's resulted in a lot more business for part-time sewer line cleaner Tim Chumley, Nokomis, Ill.
New toilets in the U.S. are now restricted to 1.6 gal. per flush and that causes problems in some farm systems. When things plug up, people call Tim.
He charges $85 to clean out a local system and $125 if you're out of his primary area. He gets 2 to 6 calls a week, all of which he handles on evenings and weekends since he has a daytime job.
He has two power "eels" or "snakes" that he uses to clear drains. His biggest unit, a Rigid K 750 Eel Sewer Cleaning Machine, has 100 ft. of reach.
