How does the Better Business Bureau rating system work?

Ratings range from A+ to F, based on factors like customer complaints, transparency, and responsiveness. Customer reviews do not impact the BBB rating. BBB also seeks and uses information directly from businesses and public data sources. Please find more information about our rating system.

BBB ratings reflect how a business is likely to interact with customers. Ratings update automatically as new information is received. In some cases, a business's grade may be lowered if the BBB does not have sufficient information about the business despite requests for the information.

Government Actions

Government Action: BBB reports on known government actions involving business’ marketplace conduct:
State of Ohio v. CMI Waste Removal Service, Inc. and Daniel Shackleford Jr.

The following describes a pending government action that has been formally brought by a government agency but has not yet been resolved.  We are providing a summary of the government’s allegations, which have not yet been proven.




On May 30, 2019, the Ohio Attorney General’s Office filed a civil lawsuit in Licking County Common Pleas Court against defendants CMI Waste Removal Service, Inc. and Daniel Schackleford Jr. operating a solid waste and trash collection company in Newark, Ohio and surrounding areas.




According to the lawsuit, the defendants:



- commonly missed pick update dates and sometimes did not pick up trash for several months




- often did not call consumers back, often had full voicemail




- often did not provide refunds requested by consumers for missed services.




- continued to charge some defendants when consumers attempted to cancel their services or agreements




The state is seeking restitution for consumers, a $25,000 civil penalty for each alleged violation, and is asking that the court prohibit defendants from engaging in consumer transactions until consumer restitution and civil penalties ordered have been paid.




The matter is pending.
