Harvest is a fast-growing unincorporated community in Madison County north of Huntsville along the US-431 and Zierdt Road corridors. The area has seen significant residential development over the past 15 years, creating a range of system ages — some homes have relatively new systems while adjacent older properties may have tanks that haven't been serviced in a decade. Harvest sits outside the City of Huntsville's sewer service footprint, meaning the vast majority of residential properties rely on private septic. This includes both conventional drainfield systems and, on smaller or lower-lying lots, aerobic treatment units. If you're in Harvest and your aerobic system's alarm has activated, or your drains are running slow, call us and we'll connect you with a contractor who covers this area.
Same-week routine, 60–90 min for emergency dispatch from central Huntsville.
Who regulates septic work in Harvest
Madison County Health Department (in coordination with the Alabama Department of Public Health) issues permits for new septic installation, tank replacement, and major drainfield repair anywhere in Madison County. Reference: Madison County Health Department — Onsite Sewage Facilities program.
Harvest's 15-year residential growth spurt means a wide age range — newer homes on conventional systems adjacent to older 1980s–90s properties with tanks that may not have been serviced in a decade. Aerobic treatment units are increasingly common on smaller lots and lower-lying areas.
Mixed clay and loam soils typical of Madison County's northern corridor. Drainage varies by lot; systems on heavier clay areas benefit from 3-year pump-out intervals.

Harvest Septic FAQ
My Harvest aerobic system alarm is going off — what do I do?
A tripped aerobic alarm typically means the aerator has stopped, the effluent pump has failed, or the system is overloaded. Stop discharging water where possible and call for service the same day — aerobic systems left untended after an alarm can cause backup and drainfield saturation within 24–48 hours. Our network has contractors familiar with aerobic systems servicing the Harvest area.
Is Harvest on the Huntsville sewer system?
No. Harvest sits outside the City of Huntsville's sewer service footprint, so virtually every property relies on private septic. This includes both conventional drainfield systems and, on smaller or lower-lying lots, aerobic treatment units subject to the ADPH-mandated annual maintenance contract.
How much does septic pumping cost in Harvest?
Standard pumping for a 1,000-gallon tank in Harvest typically runs $300–$425, aligned with Madison-area rates. Aerobic system service (which includes aerator inspection and effluent pump check) typically adds $75–$150 over standard pumping.
