The team at Sierra Sanitation have always been professional and easy to work with. Debbie swiftly handles the calls and invoicing and is super accommodating with our challenging schedule. Jay and Jose arrived as scheduled despite the winding roads and were able to identify the tanks and complete the pumping as needed. We highly recommend Debbie and the Sierra Sanitation team!!

Sierra Sanitation was great! They were able to rent me a portable potty on short notice for a great price. It was clean/brand new. Travis, the employee who made the delivery worked with us on placement. They were very accommodating and I highly recommend them! Thank you!

Sierra Sanitation absolutely came through for us in a beyond generous way for the Randy Hoppert Memorial Golf Classic on May 22nd. When our event ended up doubling in size, they responded with an extremely quick turnaround and, without hesitation, donated additional sinks and restrooms to make sure everything was covered. Their kindness and generosity meant so much during a meaningful event. A huge thank you to Justine, Joleen, and Debbie—they were wonderful to work with and made the whole process easy. Jay was onsite as planned and made sure everything was set up within the requested time frame. We are truly grateful that Sierra Sanitation stepped up as an in-kind services sponsor and supported our community in such a caring way. Highly recommend!

While we focus on scheduled preventative maintenance, we understand that emergencies can happen. If you are experiencing a severe backup or failure, call our office immediately. We prioritize a quick, knowledgeable response to minimize damage and restore functionality promptly.
