OUR RICH HISTORY

Loyal Weed circa 1954

FIVE GENERATIONS OF SERVING OUR COMMUNITY

In the mid-1950s, father and son Bert and Loyal Weed started Weed and Sons Septic Tank Cleaning, also known as “Weedy’s Septic Tank Cleaning”. In 1975, Loyal’s second-oldest son Rick started Weed Excavating and began installing septic systems, with his wife Susie managing the office. As the demand for septic tank cleaning increased, they bought a truck and began pumping tanks. Eventually, they got out of the excavation side of the business in order to focus exclusively on sewer and drain services. Today, Weed, Inc. is Kosciusko County's leading sewer and drain cleaning company, specializing in residential, commercial, industrial, and municipal wastewater solutions. 

CONTINUING THE LEGACY

We continue to be a family-owned and operated business, and nearly half of our employees are members of the Weed family. Rick and Susie decided to retire fully in 2017; today, two of their daughters manage the office, one son-in-law is a lead service technician and another fills in part-time when needed. Several grandkids are now fifth-generation Weeds to have worked in the business, helping in various capacities such as assisting in the office, doing weekend industrial work, and keeping our trucks clean. We are proud of the longevity of our company and hope to continue the legacy for many generations to come.
