An Unidentified Vehicle Creates Havoc At A Dickson, Tennessee Restaurant Outdoor Waste Enclosure

Outdoor waste enclosures have to withstand numerous obstacles on a daily basis…from extreme weather conditions in many areas across the nation to obstructive drivers, who can immediately wreak havoc on the enclosure and create inconceivable damage as witnessed in the image here of an outdoor enclosure at a Dickson, Tennessee restaurant. That’s why it is vital and imperative to have steel reinforced rebar installed in the concrete blocks of an outdoor enclosure.

“Damaged outdoor enclosures are an everyday occurrence everywhere across the nation. While extreme weather conditions, such as a bad storm, a tornado or a hurricane can instantly damage an outdoor structure, a disruptive driver can create similar or far worse damage, commented Adi Andrews, Escalations and Sales Specialist, Waste Cost Solutions.

Interestingly it was not bad weather conditions that caused the damage at the Dickson, TN restaurant. Nor was it a waste hauler accidentally backing into the structure. The culprit is an unidentified driver, who the restaurant has yet to determine the identity of, Andrews added.

“Any delivery truck can do damage to the enclosure like this. Our hauler had video footage to prove they serviced the enclosure the morning of the incident and everything was fine. The restaurant was informed of this and was shown the video. Fortunately many of our haulers now have video cameras to record their pickups. This serves to be invaluable in cases such as this,” Andrews noted.

Nevertheless the Dickson outdoor structure did not have rebar reinforcements installed. The reinforcements could have prevented the concrete from cracking and breaking. They could have also served to avert the extensive damage that did occur. We always suggest rebar reinforcements to our clients when they’re building an outdoor enclosure, as well as nice solid doors and bollards to protect the back and/or side wall(s), concluded Andrews.
