Don’t get green this St. Patrick’s Day from too much trash laying around

Allow Arwood Waste and our partners the pleasure of helping you go green by providing you with quality waste management services.

Here are three tips for Going Green this Spring:

1. Recycle

Not only does recycling paper and plastic help the environment, it saves room in your trash can – saving you money at your weekly trash pick up.

2. Compost

Throw scraps in your compost rather than your kitchen can. Your trash won’t stink and your plants and gardens will grow healthy and vibrant. It’s a win-win!

3. Walk or Ride Your Bike

Save some money, keep the air clean, and get some exercise – all at the same time.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day from Arwood Waste!

1. Enjoy the Weather

Some things are out of our control. When dangerous weather conditions cause interruptions in garbage service, know that we are doing our best and will be back on schedule as soon as we can. Take this time to enjoy the wonder of weather (you’ll probably be longing for this weather by the time August arrives).

2. Spread the Warmth

Your garbage men and women are committed to what they do, even in ice cold circumstances. Surprise them with a hot chocolate, coffee, or even some warm gloves.

3. Stay Safe

Driving large vehicles in freezing conditions can be dangerous. Make sure children are away from the road when your garbage men and women are expected to be on your street. Ice can make it difficult to stop quickly if needed. Also, make sure your garbage is properly stored and ready for pick up so your drivers don’t have increased difficulty making your pickup.

From your friends at National Garbage Man Day, we ask that you enjoy the weather, keep warm, and stay safe this winter.

It’s True! Old Man Winter is certainly 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, Temporary Fencing and Storage Rental needs all year long.

Excellent tips for clearing the clutter in your life.

What is your level of comfort for clutter?

• Two years ago, your coffee pot maker went on the blink. You put it in the garage or the closet and let it collect dust.
• Your lamp got knocked off the table and broke. It could be fixed but it’s been sitting there now for 3 months and you’ve forgotten about it.
• How about the “antique” computer monitors that you are saving for parts. They are growing in number and you still haven’t used those parts.

How long should you keep stuff?

You deserve to live in a relaxing home and to work in a clutter free environment.

Let us help you get started!

Those of us at National Garbage Man Day take this time to commemorate the history of Martin Luther King Jr., and the work that he did towards creating equality in America.

We appreciate each and every one of you, and wish freedom and peace be yours.

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

Your friends at Arwood Waste would like to wish you a Happy New Year!

It’s amazing what kind of impact just a few small changes can make. Use these tips to start off strong and make this a prosperous, rewarding, and productive new year.

#1 Simplify your environment.

Take a few minutes to walk through your home or business and ask yourself, “What can I get rid of here?” HELPFUL HINT: If it hasn’t been used in more than a year, it’s time to go. If you have a newer version, don’t keep the old one around ‘just in case’. Have a stack of half done projects? Make a plan to get them finished. Keeping them around only acts as a reminder of half-fulfilled efforts.

A purge of your physical environment brings clarity and space for vision in the atmosphere of your home or business.

#2 Share your abundance with others.

When simplifying last year’s stacks of stuff, consider what might be donated, recycled or re-purposed. Remember, what you have no need for may be just the thing someone else has been searching high and low to find.

Check out The Recycle Guide for places to drop off your re-purposed items or for more ideas on how to recycle.

#3 Plan space for growth.

You can’t add a new healthy habit, project, or vision to your plate without letting go of an old one. Set yourself up for success with your New Year’s resolutions. Start by evaluating what’s on your plate now. Decide what can be delegated, modified, or simply stopped. Then put that newly found time and energy into this year’s goals and habits.

Arwood Waste and our partners specialize in helping you haul the junk out of life. Contact us Toll Free at (888) 413-5105 for help disposing of all that purging and cleaning of the old so you can welcome in the new. Ask about our Roll Off Dumpsters, Portable Toilets, Commercial Dumpsters, Storage Rentals and Demolition Services!
