Our Business

About Connelly Pumping Services

For more than 32 years, we have proudly served the sanitation needs of local residents, businesses, contractors, camps and event organizers. We know the mountain well and understand the unique needs of our community. Our customers mean a great deal to us. Many who begin as customers become friends, and we are sincerely grateful for the trust and support we have received throughout the years.

We provide portable toilet rentals for construction sites, weddings, special events, roadwork and emergencies. Our inventory includes standard portable toilets, special-event "boudoir" units, trailer-mounted toilets, accessible units, portable sinks, 250-gallon holding tanks and solar-powered wedding toilets.

We also provide pumping services for septic tanks, holding tanks and RVs. We serve residential properties, businesses and camps throughout the area. Having serviced many local camps for decades, we are familiar with their systems and, in many cases, already know where the tanks are located.

Who We Are

About Us

We are John and Carol Connelly, owners of Connelly Pumping Services. John has worked in the septic and portable toilet industry since 1986, beginning his career with Wileman Toilet Service in Rialto, California. Patty and Willy Wileman were exceptional mentors and taught him the knowledge and values that continue to guide our business today.

In 1992, we moved to Big Bear Lake, where we raised our two sons. The following year, we founded Connelly Pumping Services to serve Big Bear and the surrounding mountain communities. As a local, family-owned and operated company, our sons often worked alongside us as they grew up. One now lives in Big Bear with his wife and children, while the other serves our country as a Navy corpsman.
