Review

I’ve been to a lot of landfills and I’ve always had a good experience every time I come. From the scale house being friendly to them keeping the road up the hill smooth and I’ve always appreciated the guys up top pointing to where you need to back in and guiding you back so you don’t have to guess. Great job DRD.
