“Pickett is an expert contractor in the Pulp & Paper industry. Pickett is the only contractor our mill will be using for landfill and dredging services.”
“Pickett has several multi-year contracts here at our plant and other IP facilities. Pickett has an average of 36-40 employees on their contracts here and provides us with quality service at reasonable prices for all of their contracts. Over the years they have been both productive and innovative in their performance of the duties assigned to them and have a proven performance and safety record. The previous dredging contractor before Pickett could not keep up with the waste stream and the ponds were overflowing. Pickett bought a new dredge and after they took over the contract they turned the dredging around in short order, and are still doing a stellar job. Pickett’s onsite managers do a really good job of coordinating with the mill. Their corporate office supports the efforts here and the equipment which we require them to keep on site is all in good mechanical shape.”
“Pickett performed dredging and landfill stabilization work at our mill. I found Pickett very competent and wonderful to work with over the whole project. The on-site management was great and kept me informed of all progress as well as any issues. All issues that required downtime were handled quickly and efficiently, and the project was completed on time.”
“On behalf of Pratt Industries, I want to extend our appreciation for services rendered. As you know, on occasions we have process upsets that require quick response and I have found that any time I have needed extra help Pickett has responded quickly and effectively to assist us. I would also say that Pickett has been an advocate of looking “outside the box” and brought ideas to the table to improve the service and also bring things that may be of interest to help both of our companies. Pickett is a reliable and reputable company whom I trust and enjoy working with.”
