Dear (sir):I would like this letter to service as reference for Steven Rumsey at RumseyEnvironmental. ABH Enterprises, Inc., which consists of Black WarriorRoofing, Southeastern Asphalt and QMA Products, Inc., has significant wastedisposal needs and require dumpster pickup (7) days a week. Steven and hiscompany have handled our needs in a professional and timely manner. Wewould recommend them to anyone. Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. Sincerely,Jimmy Hinton, Jr. Dear (sir): I am writing in reference to Steve Rumsey and Rumsey Environmental, LLC. Asyou may know, Steven was in a similar ownership and management position withTuscaloosa Waste Removal (TWR) for about 11 years - from 1987 to 1988 whenthe business was sold. During this time, he handled dumpster service for usat more than 30 apartment complexes and many office buildings, as well asother commercial locations. They dumped about 120 dumpsters on a regularschedule during this 11-year period of time.During this entire period of time, I am not aware of any significant problemwith service, missed pickups, or any other area of the waste service theyprovided. They made the pickups on time and without damage, and in all ourdealings with them, they were very customer oriented and responsive. Theydid what they promised, on time and properly done. I am sure there weretimes when things did not go as planned for them, but we did not know aboutit because they found a way to get the job done. In our business, if the dumpster is not emptied when it needs to be, thetenants just pile the trash around the dumpster in an ever increasing pile–a nasty mess. For 11 years, our dumpster service was handled likeclockwork – we almost forgot about it – which is as it should be for supportservices like this. This is quite a change from some times before when thenational companies handled our business. When Steven and his partners decided to for Rumsey Environmental, LLC, wedid not hesitate to give them our business. We have not had any problems atall with the transition to their service, which speaks extremely well of thechangeover of 125 dumpsters in a short period of time, and have hadexcellent service from the new company. I think the local owners'reputations speak for themselves with many years of successful localservice. We have changed over all of our business to Rumsey Envrionmentalwith full confidence they can all will do an excellent job. Please do not hesitate to call me if I can provide any further information.
