Our Services – City/Town
For Residents
Waste Collection
Public entities entrusted with providing citizens with quality, value-priced waste collection need look no further than the services of Waste Management. Waste Management offers more value-added services than any other waste hauler, including residential recycling, bulky item disposal, yard waste collection and many others. Our customer service centers ensure that collection issues are dealt with quickly and courteously. In addition, through our community involvement, Waste Management supports programs that protect the environment and improve the local quality of life.
Recycling
Waste Management partnerships with local communities and municipalities to collect and processes more municipal solid waste recyclables than any other company in North America. In addition to understanding the importance of a program that is economically feasible, we also understand the benefit of programs that are easily workable for your residents. That's why we've integrated the latest sorting technologies in many of our facilities, enabling us to provide single-stream programs to communities and increasing the volume of recyclables collected as much as three fold.
Yard Waste Collection
Waste Management currently partners with many communities throughout the United States and Canada to provide green waste/yard waste services to private homes. This service not only provides homeowners with a convenient way to dispose of grass, leaves, tree limbs and other yard waste, but because most of this organic material is recycled, it also helps divert waste from landfills and can often provide local companies and agricultural operations with an inexpensive source of compost and other fertilizer products.
For Businesses
Waste Collection
Waste Management provides quality collection services to more than 2 million businesses throughout North America. Waste Management's commercial collection services are clean, safe and dependable, with same-day emergency service available in most locations to deal with unexpected volumes.
Recycling
From commercial single-stream recycling, eCycling or shredding, to regional and national bale routes for your distribution center or retail location, Waste Management and our subsidiary, WM Recycle America, offers easy and cost effective recycling services for commercial accounts.
Transfer Stations
For communities not situated conveniently to landfills, Waste Management transfer stations can serve as efficient way stations between collection points and disposal facilities. At these transfer stations, waste is consolidated, compacted and loaded into long-haul trailers for transport to landfills. This operation improves the use of collection equipment by minimizing transportation time and efficiently moving large volumes of waste to our disposal sites.
Landfill Disposal
Waste Management's landfills utilize the latest advances in landfill technology to protect local ecosystems and ensure long-term integrity. A dedicated environmental steward, Waste Management ensures that all of our facilities are designed, operated and maintained to meet or exceed local, state and federal regulations.
Many Waste Management landfills offer state-of-the-art bioremediation services for detoxifying contaminated soils. After treatment, treated soils can be safely disposed of in a landfill or transported off-site for other practical applications.

Disaster Management
Helping your community recover from a disaster takes time. But with Waste Management's Disaster Management and Emergency Response Programs, the process can often begin immediately. Our team of specialists, certified by trainers of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), work with communities across North America to establish disaster management plans well before an emergency hits. Recovery strategies can then be put into action quickly and with confidence that the work and documentation will be done in compliance with FEMA regulations, helping to assure that all parties are qualified for reimbursement.
