Service Sanitation Presents Rapping Christmas Carols

Gary, Indiana are once again serving up some holiday
cheer for the season. The 2019 lighted Jingle Johns

Kendrick Lamar's "Humble." Service Sanitation
started rolling out the Jingle Johns in 2013 to

videos of the portable toilets have gone viral on their
website. "It puts our industry in a positive light," notes
the company's marketing manager.

the population who lack sanitary services
