Dear Sir/ Madam,
I would suggest that your company should tell your drivers to clear up all the trash
on the ground before leaving.

I am writing to you about the short stop of your trucks around my house on their way
to the north.

I look forward to hearing from you and seeing good response from your company.

When the trucks of your company have a short break on the streets around my house, the
drivers have left lots of garbage on the ground after their refreshment. When the trucks leave
the place, the ground is covered with trash and a few minutes later there is smell and flies.

Yours faithfully,
Tran Vu Nhat
