Just thought I would say thank you for all the years of hard work, dedication and expertise you bring to the industry regarding hazardous materials. Particularly customer service, ongoing training and liaison with agencies, whenever disposal is required to comply, not only with “Best Practices” but Regulatory and Legislative requirements in Canada as well as the U.S. Like many industries, we are registered as “Generators” of waste on rare occasions, so minimizing cost is essential to the bottom line in business. Increased inspections, penalties and fines by Regulators in Canada and U.S. sets a precedence for the need of training and documentation. This has made a Positive outcome with our corporation, thanks to Global. Your ongoing services are greatly appreciated.
