Case Study: Fru-Con keeps its project on schedule with Waste Management

Quick Action Keeps Project Moving When Partner Leaves

Fru-Con, a general contracting company based in Ballwin, Mo., was helping expand and upgrade the Broad Run Water Filtration Plant in Leesburg, Va., when its primary partner left the project and took the existing Waste Management C&D waste collection and disposal service with it. Suddenly without waste containers on site, Fru-Con needed an immediate replacement to avoid disrupting the $16 million project.

Waste Management responded the same day with two 30-yard open-top roll-off containers and quickly scaled service to as many as six containers on site. Waste Management also streamlined the ordering process by giving two Fru-Con employees authority to request service and assigning a dedicated driver, helping Fru-Con avoid significant delays and stay on budget and on schedule.
