In 1918, Emmons Service, Inc. was founded in Jackson by William Patton Emmons to remove rubbish from residential areas by horse-drawn wagon. As the business grew over the next 25 years, a shift from horse-drawn wagons to motorized trucks began to gain momentum, allowing for cleaner, more efficient removal of trash and garbage. Emmons Service, Inc. is 100% dedicated to Jackson County, assuring that money spent on our residential and commercial trash removal services is reinvested locally through our participation with various organizations and events, because we aim to be considered as an ambassador of our great community as a whole.
