Our combined employee experience totals
We have the skills.
Jack Spack Septic Tank Service was founded on April 4, 1948, by Jack Spack Sr. who acquired a used truck and began part time. By 1953, the business had grown into a full-time operation, and eventually Jack expanded his services to include drain field installation. Under his leadership, Jack Spack Septic became the largest and most trusted septic hauler in Washtenaw County. After a brief illness in 1996, Spack Sr. passed away, and the business was managed by Jack Spack Jr. for ten years. Today, Vicky Relitz, Spack Sr.’s youngest daughter, runs the company with her husband Duane. Together they uphold the workmanship, integrity, and values established by her father.
