Richmond Sanitary Service: A Legacy of Quality Septic Care Since 1942

Truck and a Portable Toilet — Marcellus, MI — Richmond Sanitary Service Inc

Call Us Today! Serving residential and commercial customers for over 80 years, Richmond Sanitary Service offers excellent service for all your septic tank and dry well pumping needs, as well as minor line repair and riser/lid installation. We're also happy to provide you with portable toilet rentals that you may need for special events, as we have more than 100 such units in regular, sink, and extra-large varieties available by the week, weekend, or longer. We also have public hand-washing stations.


Our company was founded in 1942 by Robert "Bob" Lammott in Richmond, Indiana. Initially, the company serviced "camp car" septic tanks of the Pennsylvania Railroad Company, and Bob Lammott journeyed for many miles throughout Ohio and Indiana to reach the railroad cars. In 1945, he moved the company to Long Lake in the Three Rivers, Michigan, area while keeping the word "Richmond" in the company's name. We are the oldest family-owned septic company in Michigan.

 

Bob's sons, Bobby and Walt, helped with the business, installing and pumping septic systems. Many older systems in the Three Rivers area still have a metal cap on their septic tank emblazoned with our company's logo, name, and slogan — "Don't fuss — call us"

 

In 1979, Bob's grandson, Allen, joined the company and learned the ins and outs of the trade.

 

Bob passed away in 1984, and since then, Allen has worked diligently to offer the same excellent septic service while Bob's wife, Ona, handled office duties and phone calls. In 1985, Allen Lammott married their wife Kim, and they raised two daughters, Sarah and Emma. Ona and Kim began to share office duties.

 

1993, the company incorporated portable toilet rentals into the business, beginning with eight units. It added a pickup truck featuring a removable 400-gallon septic pumping tank.

 

In 2006, Sarah Lammott became the first member of the family's fourth generation to be involved with the business. Working part-time, she ran the routes for the portable toilet rental portion of the industry in the summer. In 2008, the company became officially incorporated (it had been a sole proprietorship previously).

    Richmond Sanitary Services was great to work with.  I used them for a port-a-potty, as well as having them do some septic work (pump my tank and install a riser).  They were professional, hard working, honest, had good communication, and all for a good price.  I would definitely use them again!
