Pumps for Patients is now accepting applications for free septic pumping!

Welcome to our new website! Learn more about what we do.

What We Do

Because chemotherapy drugs can seriously damage home septic systems, we help people fighting cancer receive critical septic services completely free of charge.

Together with our network of septic pumpers, we take care of homes so people receiving chemotherapy can take care of themselves!

Why We Do It

At Pumps for Patients, the why is even more important than the what.

And our why is a young girl named Hannah.

In summer 2020, Hannah was diagnosed with pediatric cancer. While dealing with the emotional, physical, and financial ramifications of this new diagnosis, Hannah’s mom Heidi learned something else, too:

Chemo drugs can ruin a home’s septic system.

Heidi called All-American Septic Pumping to request urgent septic pumping, and co-owners Mathew and Nicki Deines decided then and there to provide the service free of charge.

Realizing the need is much greater than a single company’s capacity, Mathew and Nicki founded Pumps for Patients — and the rest is history!
