Necessity is the mother of invention. As a business Student at Portland State University I lived 70 miles from my favorite resort Mt Hood Meadows. Working part time as an instructor to get a season pass and stacking my full time school schedule into 2 or 3 days are all symptoms of an addiction to skiing. The necessity and addiction was further fueled by the opportunity to compete in biathlon compe

titions with the National Guard. As a typical college student I could not afford the 140 mile round trip commute to the Mountain. I tirelessly searched forums and YouTube to build a cooking oil conversion for a 1980 international Scout with a diesel engine. The Blog documenting the conversion is www.VeggieScout.blogspot.com. After commissioning and graduating in 2007 I deployed to Iraq with Aco 41 BSTB (SAPPER) Oregon National Guard. Upon my return I started my hobby full time and it is now becoming my life's work. We have a lot of ambitions ahead of us to accomplish our goals of sustainable energy and look forward to the trip.

Nothing beats a same-day fix when your home or business can’t wait. A recent customer told us we were fast, came out the same day, and were friendly and informative, and that’s exactly how we aim to handle every job at Scout Septic, Grease & Drain.

Early fall is a smart time to schedule septic tank pumping and septic tank cleaning so your system is ready for heavier rain and more indoor water use. If you’re noticing slow drains, smells, or soggy spots, a septic inspection can help catch trouble early and prevent bigger septic tank repair needs later.

We also help customers plan with septic maintenance so problems don’t sneak up on you at the worst time. We serve Boring, Damascus, and Happy Valley, plus the entire Portland Metro Area, with dependable septic service you can count on.

We offer 24/7 emergency service whenever an urgent issue hits. Contact Scout Septic, Grease & Drain today to schedule your service.

Fresh air, blue skies, and another job done right. 🌳

Our technician was out in Gresham this week, and it was a great reminder that late summer is the perfect time to take care of your septic system before fall rain and cooler weather roll in.

Dry ground makes septic tank pumping, drain field repair, and even septic installation much easier.

Not sure where your system stands? Start here:
👉 Book a septic inspection if it's been a while
👉 Schedule septic tank cleaning every 3 to 5 years
👉 Watch for soggy spots or odors that could mean septic tank repair is needed
👉 Stay on top of septic maintenance to avoid surprise failures

Scout Septic, Grease & Drain proudly serves Gresham, Boring, and Happy Valley, as well as the entire Portland Metro Area.

🚨 OKAY… WHO DID THIS?! 🧂⚡️

A giant box of FREE LMNT just showed up for the Scout Septic crew, and apparently someone nominated us for LMNT’s “Give A Salt” program.

The nomination said it was to:

“Help the Scout Septic team stay hydrated in this hot as balls Summer.” 😂

And whoever nominated us clearly knows their LMNT, because they also called it salty, delicious, and free of all the bad s**t.

So… which one of you salty bastards nominated us?! 😂

Seriously, though — this was an awesome surprise. Whoever you are, THANK YOU! Our crew works their asses off out in the heat, and this will absolutely get put to good use.

Now quit hiding and take credit for it! 👇😂
