SWANA’s Road-E-O was established:
•To promote professionalism on the part of the drivers, mechanics, and equipment operators in the field of solid waste management.
•To create a spirit of competition and goodwill throughout the participating organizations.
•To provide additional services by the Chapter to a segment of the solid waste professionals who seldom have the opportunity to show off their skills.
