Phil Chiarella, 42, is a hybrid in the pumping business. He’s a portable restroom operator, but as a member of the fourth generation of a family in the septic pumping business, he’s also a septic pumper. His business is PJ’s PortaJohns and Septic Service in Danbury, Connecticut.
He even has a hybrid truck designed to be well suited as a portable restroom service vehicle and a septic pumping rig. “I knew what I wanted. I figured out the specs and had Amthor build it,” Chiarella says.
The truck is a 2008 Ford F-750 that he bought used in 2015.
