About Us

Raised Here. Serving Here.

Sanders Septic Services is a local family business. We live and work in Douglas County and the northwoods.

Our Story

Not every kid dreams of owning a septic company, but we did. Okay… maybe we didn’t either.

But somewhere along the way, we both dreamed of building something of our own—something that would allow us to serve the community we call home.

When we saw the growing need for reliable septic services in our area, we saw an opportunity to do exactly that. So, we decided to build a business together, right here in Hawthorne, with a simple goal: to be the septic company we’d want to call ourselves.

Wisconsin Born and Raised

This isn’t just an area we service—it’s home. Growing up here has given us a firsthand understanding of the homes, properties, and septic systems that are part of life in the Northwoods, and we bring that local knowledge with us every time we pull into a driveway.

We’re based in Hawthorne and regularly serve Douglas, Washburn, Bayfield Counties, and nearby towns. If you’re close by and unsure about coverage, call us.

You’re hiring a Wisconsin family business that plans to stay put.

Rooted in Community

We believe being a good local business means being a good neighbor. We’re proud to serve the same communities we call home, and we believe in doing business the right way—fair pricing, honest answers, clear communication, and work we can stand behind.

You’ll see us at local parades and on the job the same week—first-time pump-outs, cabin holding tanks, and home-sale inspections all get the same careful treatment.
