About Arriva - [Fulton, MS] (formerly Fulton Telephone Company)

Fulton sits in the folds of the Itawamba hills with the Tenn-Tom Waterway sliding quiet along its eastern side, barge water moving between wooded banks. Yards here run uphill and down, terraced and awkward in places, and Arriva works exactly that ground — mowing across slopes, trimming the banks a mower cannot hold, edging drives, clearing clippings from the walks. Northeast Mississippi springs arrive green and fast, and the grass makes the most of every warm week. There is quiet pride in taking a steep, ragged lot and handing it back looking level and cared for. Around Fulton, a kept yard reads as a kind of good manners.
