Recreation:

Fond du Lac Cross Country Ski Trail

Thirty-seven miles of trails wind throughout the 64,000 acre Fond du Lac State Forest. Some sections offer wide, gentle curves while the majority are narrow with tighter curves and corners. Much of the route follows ridges that border wetlands, marshy areas, wooded swamps and shallow wild-rice lakes. Trails located within the forest offer more challenging loops, and a gravel pit provides riders with a large practice area.

Phone: (218) 644-1177

We opened our doors 15 years ago with just one septic truck. But word of our top-notch services quickly spread and we’ve been busy ever since. Now we have a luxury restroom trailer, 10 trucks, and over 500 portable toilets. We’re proud of what we do, too. Maybe that sounds strange coming from people who specialize in septics and portable toilets, but it’s true. We know how important safe sanitation is. And we’re dedicated to making the Northland a clean place to live. We’re insured, bonded, and licensed by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. So whether your septic needs to be pumped or your event needs portable toilets, you can trust us to do the job right.
