Septic Service in Stedman, NC

Stedman is a small railroad town on NC 24 east of Fayetteville. Homes in the countryside around it often have their own septic system. Here’s what to know.

In town or out in the country?

The Town of Stedman runs its own water and sewer, so many homes inside the town limits are connected. Out in the countryside around Stedman, homes that aren’t on the town system rely on a septic tank and drain field.

Not sure which you have? Look for a sewer charge on your utility bill, or a tank lid or cleanout in the yard. No sewer charge usually means septic.

Rural lots, older systems

Many homes around Stedman sit on farm and country lots, some with septic systems that have been in the ground for decades. A tank that hasn’t been pumped in years sends solids toward the drain field, which is the expensive part to replace. If you don’t know when yours was last pumped, schedule it.
