To determine if a septic tank has been removed or covered up, you can look for signs such as a change in the ground's surface, like settling or unusual soil compaction in the area where the tank was located. Additionally, check for any access points like manholes or inspection ports; if they are absent, the tank may have been removed. You can also consult property records or previous owners for documentation about the septic system's status. Lastly, hiring a professional to conduct a thorough inspection can provide clarity on the situation.
