Our Services

Residential Septic Services

Keep your home’s septic system running safely with tank pumping, grease trap cleaning, tank locating, pump repair and replacement, peat moss system maintenance, and mortgage inspection services.

Commercial Grease Trap Cleaning

Stay compliant with Jefferson County regulations — we clean small indoor grease traps on a bi-weekly schedule and large outdoor in-ground tanks quarterly, so your kitchen never misses a beat.

Municipal & Industrial Services

From storm drain jetting and vacuuming to sludge removal, dewatering, camera inspections, hydro-excavating, and lift station pumping — we scale to handle tanks, ponds, and lagoons of any size.
Our Story

Serving Alabama Families and Businesses Since 1957

Meeks Environmental Services has been a family-owned and family-operated business for more than six decades — a rarity in any industry. What started as a local waste removal operation has grown into a full-service company with a fleet of trucks, each staffed by a professional two-man crew, covering residential, commercial, and municipal clients across North Central Alabama. Our longevity isn’t accidental: it’s built on honest work, qualified crews, and a commitment to showing up on time and solving the problem right the first time.

Great business to work with. I have dealt with David and Steve Meeks himself and would never hesitate to refer them to anyone. You won’t find a more honest company and people to work with. Plus 60 years in business! That is rare today.

Common Questions

How often should I have my septic tank pumped?

Most residential septic tanks should be pumped every 3 to 5 years, depending on household size and usage. Regular pumping prevents backups, protects your drain field, and extends the life of your system.

How often are commercial grease traps required to be cleaned in Jefferson County?

Jefferson County requires indoor grease traps to be cleaned every two weeks and outdoor in-ground grease tanks to be cleaned every three months. Meeks Environmental can set up a recurring schedule to keep you compliant.

What areas does Meeks Environmental serve?

We serve a wide variety of residential, commercial, and municipal clients across North Central Alabama, including Bessemer, Pelham, Vestavia Hills, Mountain Brook, and Alabaster.

Can you handle large industrial or municipal jobs, not just residential tanks?

Yes — we pump and haul everything from 10-gallon restaurant grease interceptors to million-gallon industrial lagoons, and we provide storm drain jetting, hydro-excavating, camera inspections, and lift station pumping for municipalities and industries.
