Hurricanes Katrina and Rita
When Hurricane Katrina hit the Southeast in August of 2005, Service Sanitation was called into action. As one of the first organizations to respond, our crew of qualified personnel delivered hundreds of portable restrooms, several shower trailers, and multiple pumper trucks to this location.
Service Sanitation had as many as eight pumper trucks running 24 hours per day at the peak of the activity. In addition to the servicing of portable restrooms and shower trailers, SSI was responsible for the logistics of routing all services. We created a command center for incoming hotline calls; units and trucks were dispatching accordingly. SSI stationed personnel at these locations for several months.
