Investing in our communities
As members of the community, we believe in investing in the very place that we have put our roots into, which is why you'll often see one or maybe even all of us out and about throughout the Redwood, Renville, Lyon and Yellow Medicine Counties doing just that. Clean streets, happy community.
In this News & Events section, you will see community activities, customer experiences and other relevant information from our team at Sweetman Sanitation.
