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,

Dear Sir/Madam,
These days, many people begin to catch fish in the lake behind your house.
What makes you worried most is they use electricity to catch fish
A lot of small fish died and floated on the water surface.
Other animals such as frogs, toads and even birds also died from electricity shock waves
You think that local authorities should prohibit and fine heavily anyone catching fish in this way
