In May 2011, Suburban Waste Services was honored by the Small Business Administration (SBA) with their Small Business Excellence Award. This award recognizes businesses for their response to adversity, service to their community, growth, longevity and innovation of products and services. SWS was one of seven companies statewide to receive this honor. The award ceremony was very exciting for us. MN Secretary of State Mark Richie and representatives from our congressional and senate offices were also in attendance.SWS was highlighted for our growth from two to ten trucks in 3 years and for adding 10 new jobs to the local economy. We were also recognized for providing outstanding service. We were nominated for this award by our wonderful bank, Venture Bank in Bloomington.
