“The soldier is the Army. No army is better than its soldiers. The Soldier is also a citizen. In fact, the highest obligation and privilege of citizenship is that of bearing arms for one’s country” – General George S. Patton Jr.

On June 14th, the 241st birthday of the United States Army, Arwood Waste wants to express our appreciation to the men and women of this U.S. military branch for their dedication, loyalty and courage. We are grateful for the sacrifices made by all of the soldiers and their families for this great country.

Thank you to those who have served, and who are currently serving in the United States Army, for all that you do to keep our country safe.

Call us at (888) 413-5105 if we can ever serve you for Roll Off Dumpster Rentals, Portable Toilet Rentals, Commercial Dumpster Rentals, or Storage Rentals

All year the men and women of the waste management industry are hard at work collecting, processing, filtering, and recycling over 250 million tons of garbage to keep our environment safe and clean. The week of June 17th is the time for us to come together to collectively show our appreciation.

Why do we celebrate all week?

Well, if it were up to us every day would be National Garbage Man Day, but until that catches on we encourage the week-long celebration so everyone can show their appreciation on the specific day of their garbage service.

Get Involved

We have several ideas on our website to help spark your own creative way to show your appreciation. From handwritten notes to delivering baked goodies, there are tons of great ways to say “Thank You”. You can also order a National Garbage Man Day T-Shirt or Thank You Cards to show your support year round!

Let us know how you celebrate!

We would love to know how you choose to celebrate the garbage workers in your life. Please leave us a comment or “Like” us on Facebook and leave us a message there. Who knows, your way of celebrating this year may give someone else an idea for how to show their support in the future.

Thank you for joining us in this week of appreciation!

This Memorial Day Weekend we want to HONOR all of those that have made our freedom possible. If not for them, our opportunities to go after our dreams would be limited. We want to THANK all who have served and are serving our Country. (Don’t forget to read below for your Memorial Day Discount)

Some fun facts for your Memorial Day Weekend…

You might find yourself blurting out some of this “trashy” trivia on your Memorial Day Cookout this weekend.

Did you know…
That the average American throws away almost 5 pounds of trash a DAY.
Every day in the U.S., we throw away enough garbage to fill around
63,000 garbage trucks… a DAY! At least 1/3 of that is from the snazzy packaging we discard.

Can you guess…
What is New York’s number one export? Waste paper. Who knew!

Can you guess…
What is made from recycled glass?
Hint… try bottles, fiber glass insulation, and materials used in
building roads and construction.

Did you know…
It takes on average 6 weeks for an aluminum can to be remelted and put back on those store shelves? And it saves 90-95% less energy to produce an aluminum can if it’s being recycled than it would to create new ones.
That is fairly impressive.

“One man’s garbage is another man’s treasure. Unless you’re a raccoon. Then it’s basically all one category.”  – Author Unknown

Sanitation Workers Watching Out For Safety

In a recent article posted on www.johnarwood.com, John Arwood’s personal website, he highlighted several ways sanitation workers could partner with local first responders and law enforcement to help protect their communities.

As the safest communities have learned, partnerships between law enforcement officers and the public in crime prevention are the most effective ways of stopping criminals. Who better to help prevent crime than our very own sanitation workers? They are the workforce who are already in our neighborhoods and communities every day keeping us safe and clean. Garbage men provide extra eyes for police officers and know when something’s out of the ordinary. – John Arwood

“Today let us, as Americans, honor the American fighting man. For it is he–the soldier, the sailor, the Airman, the Marine–who has fought to preserve freedom. It is his valor that has given renewed hope to the free world that by working together in discipline and faith our ideals of freedom will always prevail.”

– Admiral Forrest P. Sherman, USN
