TRASH SERVICES
Important Safety Message from Republic Services:
​
In a township in South Central PA last week, Republic Services had a resident approach one of their trucks to throw something in the compactor area while a driver was operating the remote mechanical arm to empty the residents cart.
We cannot stress how dangerous this was and we need to express in the most serious way possible that this cannot happen for many reasons with resident safety being the most important. This is especially important to tell your children since school will soon be on summer break.
​
-
DO NOT APPROACH A TRUCK THAT IS IN THE ACT OF DUMPING THE CONTAINER INTO THE COMPACTION AREA.
-
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO GET THE OPERATORS ATTENTION WHILE THEY ARE OPERATING THE COMPACTION MECHANISM OR THE ARM THAT DUMPS THE CARTS
-
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO THROW ITEMS INTO THE COMPACTION AREA OF THE TRUCK
​
The last thing Republic Services or the municipality wants is for a resident to be injured or potentially killed in the process of Republic collecting a resident’s trash or recycling materials.
Thank you for your attention to this very serious safety concern.
