I have to agree with you 100% on this. Most everyone I know has never had their tank pump. The few I know, that do, do so because someone told them it needed to be done every few years. I've got one neighbor that gets their tank pumped every year and I've got friend that have been on septic for over 20+ years and never pumped. None have had problems with their septic.
