Verified record
Mr. Cesspool is an Acushnet septic and portable-restroom company built around pumping, maintenance, drain cleaning, and rentals across Massachusetts and Rhode Island. BBB says Chuck Leonard owns the one-person business, which it says began in 1997; the company says it has operated for more than 25 years. The public customer record is thin, but a July 2024 news report identifies one of its septic-pumping trucks at a fire. That report describes the vehicle and its contents, not the quality of the company’s work. The company’s own service description covers septic pumping and maintenance, portable restroom rentals, drain cleaning, and restaurant grease-trap cleaning. Confirm the exact service, response window, disposal arrangements, and price before scheduling. Mr. Cesspool is a practical fit to investigate for septic or sanitation needs across its stated MA–RI service area. Ask which crew and equipment will handle the job and get the scope in writing.
“The flaming vehicle was a Mr. Cesspool Port-a-Jons septic pumping truck, equipped with a septic tank and Port-A-John supplies such as toilet paper and hand sanitizer.”
