Sanitation Salvage, the trash removal company whose operating license was recently suspended after a series of dangerous events, announced it wants to continue providing services to the community.

In May, news broke that Sean Spence, a driver for Sanitation Salvage in the Bronx, N.Y., struck and killed an elderly man and a “homeless man” within a six-month period.
