Letters: Trash companies must do better

Most of the time that I get behind a trash truck, trash is blowing out of the truck. Whenever I can, I notify the driver. Most of the time, he acknowledges it and does nothing.

It seems to me that the management of these companies would better educate their drivers.

Recently, while traveling across the McTeer Bridge, I had to dodge a big box blown out along with the contents of that box.

Come on companies, you are supposed to pick up trash, not disperse it along the highways of our beautiful county.
