The Plano, TX ROAD-EO was a fun day for employees and family members, and an opportunity for Drivers, Heavy Equipment Operators and Technicians to show off their skills!
For the first time ever, the competition included a safety and skills challenge course for Forklift Operators from the Recycling Center. Skills included maneuvering through the course without tipping or hitting cones, dropping a basketball into a cart and flipping a coin from the ground onto the fork of the forklift. Congratulations to all of the winners!

Let’s hope so!
