              Status:
              Unanswered
              Safety-Kleen had delivered unapproved equipment and have also taken equipment that was not approved to be removed and then billed ** for it.Some of these mis-billing invoices had been paid in error and we have been attempting to get billing corrections resolved since November 2022. They have also billed us for additional services that had not been performed since November 2022 that are also unapproved as we had stopped using them while waiting for billing to be resolved.We are struggling to get anyone from Safety-***** to address the matter after almost a year of phone calls & emails. We also get collections emails from different people periodically, then no response after we provide them with details again.We are looking for them to finally address our billing corrections, which is why we are filing this complaint.

              November 30th, 2023 a tanker carrying clean harbors chemical waste was not secured, the driver left the lid off the top of the tanker pouring acid and other chemicals onto my family vehicle with myself and 2 daughters in the car. This company has been so ******* in the whole process, The claims management department is absolutely horrible. We have been fighting this battle since November with the company. My family has been paying out of pocket for something the company should be taking care of. We are still without a vehicle, stuck with medical bills and out of pocket expenses. Let me add we do have a lawyer and they fail to stay in contact with him as well. It's nearly impossible to speak to someone at the company to try and settle this matter before pursuing a full lawsuit.
