Don’t use this company but on my way to drop off my kid at school one of the drivers ran a stop sign and almost crashed into me! He then proceeded to flip me off. 2 minutes later he shows up at my kids school, rolls his window down flips me off once again and yells “it’s your fault” in the middle of the elementary school parking lot! I always take the same route every day so I know the way very well. I was in such disbelief I didn’t even think to pull out my phone take a picture of the license plate.

This is in reference to a driver that was on 377 Main St in Keller Tx, he need to drive better he rode my tail from 377 n Watauga to 377 N Tarrant. Now as a Professional driver with my CDL license we are held at a higher standard and we are to turn in the second inside line when there is two turning lanes. Do better Professional Driver.

This is a horrible company, I have filed two complaints with the City of Fort Worth. I received a call from Management of this company and he was very rude with a So What Attitude, highly Unprofessional. The driver on my route drive while carrying my bin several feet away then toss it to the ground or against my mailbox. I’m fed up with the unnecessary and disrespectful way he’s treating my property.
Horrible, Disrespectful, Unprofessional Company! The City of Fort Worth really need to do something.

Every Friday they come down my street empties the trash and let it fly out of the back of the truck and the driver kept going when my disabled neighbor tried to get them to empty his trash . So disrespectful and unprofessional. I wished that we could sit our trash out like they do in Arlington and Forest Hill

After 5 years of sending in complaints about the drivers for my Ft Worth community I am thrilled they finally got a very professional trash bin driver #412!! 😁 this driver cares about his job and people’s property always leaves our cans in a nice order and leaves the street clear of junk. He does not drop the cans or leave them all over the place. I really hope Knight will keep this driver in my area 76140 for a long time and give the driver a bonus.

Yesterday 4/4/19 around 3:15-3:20 PM on south bound east loop 820 the driver of truck 216 license plate number DST 1360 drastically cut me off almost causing me to rear end him. I was driving in the left lane going around 65, he was in the right lane which had begun to slow way down to the range of 20-30 mph. There is alot of construction on that road currently so I assume that's why his lane slowed down so much. I was driving my 3/4 ton diesel towing a dump trailer that was about half full of soil. When he cut me off there was a vehicle about 60-70 feet in front of me, so it was very sudden considering
