Even with COVID staff shortages, trash was picked up

Google

- Residential Customer

These people come every week. The workers are friendly. Even when they had worker shortages during COVID our trash and yard waste was picked up. If they didn’t have enough people to do it on the assigned day, they picked it up the next day. They do a very good job.

Came as scheduled

- Residential Customer

They came as scheduled to remove some things in our back yard. As a female and a senior citizen it was appreciated that they went the extra mile and walked to where those items were, and brought them to the truck. Thank you.
