Driver David B. is Local Hero in Palos Hills, IL


As David was providing service in Palos Hills, IL, he noticed a resident walking his dog that appeared to be struggling.  As he got closer, it looked like the gentleman was having a heart-attack, so David immediately called 911 and did what he could to help the man until the emergency responders arrived.  The family of the man contacted Republic Services to share his heroic behavior and express their gratitude to David for attempting to save their father.

This is a great example of how our drivers are everyday heroes in the communities they serve. Thank you to David for looking out for others.
