Free Septic Servicer
Service Agreement
Stop wasting your valuable field time playing phone tag for unpaid invoices and remove the emotional friction of chasing late payments.
Pro Contractor Tip
Your service agreement should explicitly state that a 30-day delinquency triggers an automatic 'Service Suspension,' exempting your company from emergency response obligations until the account is settled.
Why use a written agreement?
Handshake deals are risky. As a Septic Servicer, "scope creep" is your biggest enemy. A clear agreement ensures everyone agrees on the deliverables before money changes hands.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I handle a long-time customer who stops paying without ruining the relationship?
Using a digital Dunning Engine allows you to shift the 'blame' to an automated system. The software handles the repetitive reminders, allowing you to remain the helpful service provider while the 'robot' handles the firm business enforcement.
Is it worth sending a demand letter for a single pump-out fee?
Chasing small amounts manually is rarely cost-effective. However, an automated Dunning Engine can send a series of professional, escalating demands at zero extra labor cost to you, making it profitable to recover even the smallest invoices.
What is the best way to implement a stop-work order for non-payment?
A stop-work order is most effective when it is triggered automatically by your billing software. When the system detects a 30-day delinquency, it can block the client from the schedule, ensuring you don't accidentally provide free labor to non-paying accounts.
