Save a Patrick County Business: Rural Services, Inc.

Rural Services, Inc. has been a valued family-owned and operated business based in Patrick County, Virginia since 1971. Owners Johnny and Debbie Marion of Claudville, Virginia, also employ five other full-time local citizens to provide quality garbage service to the community of Patrick County. Unfortunately, the business is in threat of leaving the county by being underbid by a "big box" garbage company based in North Carolina and servicing 7 states, which has the advantage of being supported by two investment companies and boasts a CEO and COO. Rural Services is small town and we are proud of it. We know most of our customers personally and as an added service, pick up at the door for our elderly clients. The corporate garbage company won't offer this service. We buy our fuel here in Patrick County. We buy the parts that are available here in Patrick County. Our accountant and lawyer are here in Patrick County. We support a variety of local charities. We pay taxes in Patrick County. The corporate garbage company will be paying Wytheville County taxes.

Please sign this petition to our Patrick County Supervisors to save Rural Services, our employees and help us continue to support other local businesses.
