Little Pee Dee State Park in Dillon County preserves a landscape that has remained largely unchanged for centuries. The park encompasses part of an ancient Carolina Bay — mysterious oval-shaped depressions found along the Atlantic coastal plain whose origin is still debated by geologists. The U.S. Geological Survey has interpreted them as relict thermokarst lakes formed thousands of years ago when the climate was colder and windier.

Dillon County Soil Types and Septic Performance
Dillon County lies on the inner Coastal Plain and is characterized by sandy loam and loamy sand soils that historically supported extensive tobacco farming. The dominant upland soils — Norfolk, Orangeburg, and Dothan series — are well drained with moderate permeability, making most elevated areas suitable for conventional septic systems. Near the Little Pee Dee River and its tributaries, poorly drained Rains and Lynchburg series soils with higher clay subsoils create areas where water moves too slowly for standard drain fields, and alternative septic designs may be needed.

What People Are Saying
“We were tired of dealing with a discount pumper who just wasn't getting the job done! Our septic system was backing up every 3 to 6 months. Finally, we called Septic Workz. They used the Crust Buster to get all the solids out and then added commercial chemicals to help balance our tank. Three years later, we still haven't experienced any backups!”
