SERVICE HAS BUILT OUR BUSINESS

Jess Pumping was founded in 1975 by Jesus Navarro and quickly became the area's go to septic service company. In 2024, Jess Pumping became part of the A1 Rocket family. Jesus' son, Andy, still works for the company today.

 

Mark Zimmer purchased A-1 Rocket in 1989 as a portable restroom company in Amarillo, Texas. From hard work and customer service the business began to grow and add more equipment and employees. Soon after, the company began to offer temporary construction fencing to accompany the portable restrooms.

​

After graduating from Texas A&M University, Mark’s son, Ryan, joined the A-1 Rocket team. With the help of his father, Ryan was able to quickly expand A-1 Rocket into other services and areas.

​

As the company began to grow, A-1 Rocket added storage containers and job site offices to the fleet in 2009. Moving forward A-1 Rocket acquired American Portable Storage in 2010 and Scott Box in 2011. Additionally, A-1 Rocket was able to begin offering roll off dumpster services and septic pumping by adding Max Waste Management in 2017 and Jess Pumping in 2024, respectively. A-1 Rocket now specializes in full site services for the construction industry: portable restrooms, temporary fencing, roll off dumpsters, storage containers, job site offices, and septic pumping.

​

The A-1 Rocket family has been very blessed to expand operations and has been recognized by Texas A&M’s Aggie 100 program in 2013, 2014, 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2024.
