Safway Services Information Box Update--> BrandSafway
After the merger of Safway Services and Brand Energy & Infrastructure Services I recommend that the company be updated to the BrandSafway logo.

Industry           = Access & Industrial Services Founded            = 1919 Headquarters       = Kennesaw, Georgia Area Served        = Global Key People         = Bill Hayes (President & CEO) Number of Employees = 35,000 Website            = www.brandsafway.com

The changes above are accurate and can be found on the company's website above.
 * Hi Cwills brandsafway I have moved the page and uploaded the logo, Cheers KylieTastic (talk) 15:58, 7 December 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi KylieTastic are you also able to update the external links from www.safway.com to www.brandsafway.com

External Link Change- 01/09/2019
Hi

I see that the external link at the bottom of the webpage still has the link to Safway.com. I believe it should be updated to match the link in the description box, "www.brandsafway.com" since the company experienced a merger. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Arieswonder (talk • contribs) 21:03, 9 January 2019 (UTC)
