Waste Pro drivers value the Waste Pro Way each day they go out on their routes, doing everything from bonding with residents to practicing safe driving. Naturally, keeping our customers and employees safe is one of our top priorities, so we created a $10,000 Safety Award Bonus program to recognize drivers who drive safely each day.

In 2022, Waste Pro proudly awarded 115 employees the company’s coveted Safety Award. A total of $1,030,000 was awarded to 91 drivers and 24 helpers who remain dedicated to safely serving the communities within the Southeastern United States. “Our Waste Pros continue to prioritize safety. This recognition is earned and not won – it takes hard work, dedication, and a belief in the Waste Pro Way in addition to following our core values and safety protocols,” said Waste Pro Director of Safety Romeo Vellutini.

Since the program’s inception in 2004, approximately $7.4 million has been awarded to drivers and helpers who are committed to safety and the service they provide to communities throughout our footprint. To date, more than 740 drivers and 97 helpers have earned the awards, some of whom have earned them multiple times.
