A Town Named for Paschal Shelburn on US 41
Shelburn was founded in 1855 and takes its name from Paschal Shelburn, who founded the community. It sits in Curry Township in Sullivan County, a township named for William Curry, its first settler, and the town is part of the Terre Haute metropolitan area.
US 41 has long run through Shelburn, and the newer US 41 and US 150 expressway now passes most of the town on the west side. Long before that, Shelburn had a stop on the Terre Haute, Indianapolis and Eastern interurban line.
That long history shows up in the yards. Older homes in town and in East Shelburn were often expanded over the years, and it is common to find a tank lid under a deck, a sidewalk or a flower bed. We take the time to find it and mark it so the next service is easier. A simple sketch of where the tank and lines sit saves time on every visit after that, and it helps the next owner too.
The Septic Company Sullivan County Neighbors Know by Name
Being a septic company Sullivan County families see at the grocery store and the ball field keeps us honest. The Sullivan County Health Department oversees septic permits for every town in the county, Shelburn included, and we tell you up front if a repair looks like it needs that office's review.
Our crew works under IDEM Septic Permit #1209 from the Indiana Department of Environmental Management and keeps up with yearly IOWPA training through the Indiana Onsite Wastewater Professionals Association. We pump, maintain and repair existing systems; we do not put in new septic systems.
Financing is available on larger repairs, and we work with insurance companies when a backup or a burst line leads to a claim. Those options take some of the sting out of a surprise repair. We would rather help a neighbor plan a fix than watch a small problem grow because the timing was hard.
