The septic day, on one board.
Every septic job on one board the office runs and the trucks read: the morning built once, the emergency dropped in without re-sorting it, and Arrive tapped from the cab.

The backup jumped the route. The route survived it.
The work
The days the board has to hold.
01
Pump-out routes
The same tanks on a three-to-five-year clock. The route lives on the board with gallons, depth, and condition noted at the truck, not on a clipboard that stays in it.
02
Inspections
Point-of-sale and routine inspections with photos, findings, and the report on the record, sent to the agent or homeowner the same day, not after the weekend.
03
Repairs and installs
Baffles, risers, pumps, and full systems. Quoted from the book and scheduled around the route instead of against it.
Why it matters
The argument, in three rows.
A truck that’s driving isn’t earning
Jobs sequence by geography so the day spends its hours on work, not windshield. The gap in the afternoon is visible at 6:40, not at 2 p.m.
The day goes sideways on schedule
A burst line jumps the queue; the board reshuffles; every affected phone updates itself. The emergency is an insertion, not a meltdown.
The customer hears it first
Confirmations, delay notices, and status texts go out from the board, before the customer wonders, not after they call.
Septic · Scheduling
The board is the day.
Software for the trades where the schedule is the business, and the record has to keep up with the truck.
The old way
What the whiteboard costs.
The tank’s history lives in a shoebox
Last pump-out date, sludge depth, lid location. When the record is paper, every visit starts by rediscovering the yard.
The route runs on memory
Which customers are due this season is a question the office answers by scrolling a spreadsheet. Due dates should surface themselves.
The emergency finds no record
A backup call from a customer you served in 2022 should open with the tank, the lid, and the last depth reading, not a blank screen.
Up close
How it runs.
01
One Friday, start to finish
A cancellation at 9, an emergency at 11, a truck stuck at 2, and a board that ends the day full anyway, with every change logged and every customer told.
02
Capacity, planned ahead
Recurring visits place themselves, and the weeks ahead show how booked each day already is, so the quiet week gets a capacity push before it arrives.
03
The right tech, not just the next one
Skills and licenses match to the work, and multi-day installs hold their crew across the days.
Straight answers
What septic services ask.
What does Thorbis cost for septic services?
$99 per company per month, unlimited people, every module as it releases. Plus metered usage. $15 included each month. Nothing on this page is a tier.
Is scheduling a separate module?
No. Scheduling & dispatch is in Core, on the same record as the board, the estimate, and the invoice, so the septic job never leaves the system it started in.
Is it built for septic services specifically?
The record is the same for every trade; what changes is the work on it. For septic services that means pump-out routes, inspections, and repairs and installs, which is the day this page is written around, and the sample rows on it are septic jobs.
