Less Vendors Less Hassle!

  Gale Holsman Jr. started American Sweeping Inc. in 1984 becoming a pioneer for the sweeping community and a founding member of NAPSA (North American Power Sweeping Association). In  the past three decades of business, ASI has been in four different states and was once one of the largest sweeping companies in the country. Gale has paved the way for many sweepers starting their business by sharing his more than 30 years of experience in his sweeping seminars throughout the years. Gale has since focused his company back in Kansas and Missouri where he has lived his whole life and branching out his services.

Gale needed a roll-off company to handle his sweeping jobs that would show up on time and ensure his deadlines were met promptly. Thus he formed American Waste Systems Inc. He then found a natural progression to get into construction toilets. This department showed a great need for event portable toilets. Gale decide to take all of our services and focus them strictly into the special event arena. He formed Total Venue adding special event toilets and luxury restroom trailers to his already impressive list of event sweeping, and dayportering services. Helping to make our jobs easier we have created a company that helps condense the vendors on your jobs!
