Stephen Biggs started Aardvark Waste Services in 2001, two decades before Washington County's fringe subdivisions pushed septic systems miles farther from the municipal sewer grid. That timing matters: Biggs built his operation when the client base was smaller and the margins thinner, which is exactly when you learn the craft rather than just the production volume.
The company is based at 992 E 770 N in St. George and covers a genuinely wide swath of the region — from Colorado City and Scenic, Arizona on the south to Mesquite and Moapa, Nevada on the west, up through all of Southwest Utah including communities without city sewer access. That's a different scale of operation than a shop pumping tanks in a single county.
Services include septic tank pumping, installation, repair, inspection, troubleshooting, grease trap cleaning and maintenance, industrial sump pumping, and system locating. Biggs holds the certification credentials for Utah state septic inspections. He also teaches his children the business — the company's materials make clear that Aardvark is a family operation in the literal sense, not just as a marketing tag.
For Washington County homeowners on private septic — especially the growing perimeter communities where density outruns municipal infrastructure — Aardvark is the kind of long-tenured independent operator worth knowing before you need them.
