I just installed a little bigger one of these while upgrading my septic system. It works better than I expected and all self contained. For solids I believe they sell the pumps with grinders. Very easy to install. The one listed us just an example.

Just go and pick up a sewage ejector pump or one of these cheap buggers and be done with it. Adapt the outlet to a garden hose and away you go. Simple as can be.

You could have it tomorrow.

Yes. Thanks for the recommendation. I'm not sure if it would be a viable solution for me as it states 12.5 gallons a minute. But, it is still a good fail safe in the event we lose power and don't have a river of water to compete with. Link for the model I just looked at.

My zoeller sump pumps move 72 gallons/minute each assuming a 5 foot up-pipe. My pipes are probably closer to 8 or 9 feet. I'm guessing I move about 120 gallons per minute during the worst storm.
