Septic service in Ocala, Florida

Ocala is the county seat of Marion County and had 63,591 residents at the 2020 census. It's best known for horse country: more than 400 thoroughbred farms and training centers are in the area, which is why the city calls itself the Horse Capital of the World.

Is my Ocala home on septic?

Many neighborhoods inside the city are on city sewer, but older homes, larger lots and much of the land just outside the city limits rely on septic. Look at your utility bill: no sewer line item usually means a septic tank. The permit record will confirm it.

What do Ocala homeowners call about?

• Pump-outs on older in-town homes that have never had a schedule
• Inspections for buyers closing on homes near the edge of town
• Multiple tanks on farm properties with barns and guest houses
• Backups after the heavy summer rain season

Annexed or near sewer?

If sewer service becomes available to your property, Florida law gives owners a set period to connect, and the county's septic-to-sewer program uses the 365-day window in section 381.00655 of Florida Statutes. Ask the utility what applies at your address before you spend money on a major septic repair.
