There was also an incident where an elderly lady was knocked over by her tote while trying to bring it back in and before my husband could go out and help, your driver went and picked her up off the ground, cleaned her off, and guided her back to her house.

“This morning, one of your smaller trucks came by to collect our garbage. The man who put our waste in the truck took the time to return the containers to a spot in front of our house so as not to block the driveway. This meant he had to lift them up and secure them in a snowy area. He did this for every house on the street. I know this may not seem like a big thing, but given the current atmosphere, it was nice to see someone go the extra mile to help people out. This neighborhood has a lot of senior citizens and folks with some disabilities. It was truly appreciated and I wanted him to know how thankful we are.”

Every Monday and Thursday, our 5 year old daughter hears the truck and runs out, and Joel will wave to our daughter and she waves back. It has become a ritual over the past couple years. It’s a small gesture, but something that means a lot to our daughter.
Joel informed us today that he was getting a different route and we would be getting a new driver. It may seem small, but hearing this news broke my heart. My daughter waved to him for the last time today. He has always brought a little light into her life with just a simple wave and a honk.”

Sean Kelly & Jeffrey Anderson
“My sister lives in the Elmwood Village and my nephews are obsessed with garbage and recycling trucks. Wednesday is their garbage day and the boys pretty much drag my parents around the neighborhood following the trucks.
The driver Sean and helper Jeffrey are terrific! They are so great with the boys - always talking to them and letting them see how the trucks work. My nephew has been so excited and he now even brings them waters.
I just wanted to report a good story and hopefully report to the workers that we say thanks!”

Melissa McLaughlin – 9/21/20
“Melissa went above and beyond for me. I am a new subscription customer and am visually impaired. I was having problems viewing my contract on the computer, so Melissa filled it out over the phone with me and stopped by my home on her way home from work so I could sign it. My trash had started piling up, so I needed service immediately. Even though I didn’t have a container yet, Melissa made sure my trash was picked up right away.
I just can’t believe how she went above and beyond for me. I had the choice between you and the “big green guys” but I’m so happy I chose a local company that provides this kind of customer service. Please thank Melissa for exceptional customer service!”

The drivers would even lift the totes a few times just to show the kids how the trucks work. I wanted to make sure the drivers get recognized for being such awesome employees.”

The workers were both so kind and Dwayne got out of the truck, took my trash bag and checked my neighbors’ totes as well for anything missed. He told me that he would take it so I didn’t have to wait for a recovery and informed me to call customer service next time so they can send out a driver. Dwayne and the driver were absolutely amazing with their service and they were so kind to help me.”

I was going through a pretty tough time having to clean out my family home and his professional attitude and understanding was going above and beyond what I expected. The drivers had to get into a tough spot, a lot of back and forth maneuvering was required and they also were very professional and courteous. They made a tough situation for me easier to deal with.
Thank you for the great service!”

“I just wanted to give one of your recycling drivers a nice word. I had just gotten home from church and thought that the pickup day was delayed due to the holiday when I saw the recycling truck going down my street. When the driver stopped at my house and took the recycling, he informed me that the trash truck already came through and advised me to put my trash tote on the other side of the street so it could be collected. He then got out of his truck and went in the back to help me load up some of the larger recycling pieces I had as well. It’s guys like that working for you that really mean something. When you run into someone like that in your lifetime, it goes a long way. He was one of the nicest guys I have ever met!”

There’s nothing like a worker that is willing to go above and beyond, even when they don’t have to. He deserves much praise for the job he does!”
