Even though your lease is expired, the terms are still in affect. The only difference is that the dates are now renewed on a month to month basis. So, whatever your original lease says, goes. If your expired lease used to require the landlord to cover septic cost, then it still does.

I would say the septic pumping is almost always the landlords responsibility, unless he required you to sign some sort of agreement holding you to those cost. If he did it would be stated in the original rental contract.

The quickest way to get your landlord to take care of this is by filing a complaint. Look for the link on the top of this page. I think there’s a $30 filing fee..?
