Before there was Republic Services there was BFI

@Mike2633 Do you know whatever happened to Western Waste that ran orange trucks? Were they acquired by someone else, or did they just close up?

 

Talk about flashback to the late 89s in Charlotte NC. One of my earliest memories is a BFI front loader. On the way to school 2-3 times a week, I'd see one emptying the dumpster at the Circle K up the block from our apartments at like 7am.

 

Cool, thank you.

 

Every once in a while I will see a red Republic Services of Indianapolis truck running around making pickups, I guess it's an odd bird that gets used as a spare when needed.

 

I know it’s a long shot… when I was very young in the early 90s I swear we had these brown garbage trucks with a goat for a logo… anyone know what I’m talking about
