Davis Ship Service

Did you know that Davis Ship Service is a U.S.D.A. certified garbage hauler for vessel's calling the Port of Baltimore. Just yesterday we landed regulated garbage from the M/V NAVIOS URANUS berthed at Consol Coal. Davis Ship is the only approved contractor to dispose of regulated garbage at this terminal. It's a dirty job but someone has to do it!
