Sanitation Workers For Jesus

“It follows then as certain as that night succeeds the day, that without a decisive naval force we can do nothing definitive, and with it, everything honorable and glorious.” – George Washington

It’s True! Old Man Winter will be on the move…just ask any Arwood Waste team member in the North

For much of the country the Winter months also bring a few changes to how portable toilets and portable sanitation units are serviced to keep them functioning properly in the colder temperatures. Not much is worse than the surprise of a solid chunk of frozen waste when you need to use your portable toilet.

To prevent this experience, we may need to provide an additional climatization service to your unit during the months of November through March. If this is required you may notice a small additional Climate Fee on your bill during the affected months.

Arwood Waste and our partners are committed to providing you excellent service all year long! If you have any questions about the Climate Fee or if we can serve you any way, call us at (800) 477-0854.

Arwood Waste and our partners thank you for trusting us with your Roll Off Dumpster Rental, Portable Toilet Rental, Commercial Dumpster Rental, and Storage Rental needs all year long.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month…Kudos to the Waste Management Industry for spreading the word

According to the American Cancer Society, in 2013 approximately 39,620 women were expected to die from Breast Cancer. Treatment for this terrible disease is most effective when discovered early through regular screenings which makes public reminders to schedule screenings so important.

“While most people are aware of breast cancer, many forget to take the steps to have a plan to detect the disease in its early stages and encourage others to do the same,” according to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. This truth applies to both genders so men need to be checked for breast cancer too.

We want to highlight a few of the many waste service providers who are raising awareness about breast cancer and helping fund research for a cure this month and all year long.

Republic Services – Pink Ribbons

Cascade Cart Solutions – The Pink Cart

The Pink Carts are available to solid waste and recycling companies across North America with $5 of every purchase going to breast cancer awareness and research in both the United States and Canada.

City of Miami, Oklahoma – Bright Pink Garbage Trucks

 The City of Miami, Oklahoma has added a bright pink truck with the signature pink ribbon to it’s fleet to raise awareness about breast cancer in their local community.

WCA – Pink Trucks and “Pink Shirt Fridays” year round

Not only has WCA painted a variety of their trucks, roll-off containers, and commercial dumpsters pink, but they have also initiated an ongoing program called “Pink Shirt Fridays” where they donate $4 to breast cancer research at MD Anderson for each employee who wears a pink shirt to work on the last Friday of every month.

Beach Waste Services – Panama City, FL

Their pink trucks, pink 96 gallon carts, and pink ribbons show this company’s support for the American Cancer Society and Komen for the Cure.

Arwood Waste and Partners Nationwide

Everyone has an important part to play in battling breast cancer from funding research, to reminding those we love to get screened, to scheduling our own appointments to get checked.

We want to thank all of the many commercial and municipal waste service providers for their support and fundraising efforts to find a cure for breast cancer.

National Garbage Man Day and our friends in the waste management industry care about you so make your plan today, tell your friends, and GET SCREENED!
