It’s not a play on words when Tanner Crezee says the value of being an AMA member is that his company has gained friends and allies through the relationships it has built.
The name of the company? Ally Waste Services, of course.
“The value of being an AMA member is immeasurable,” said Crezee, Owner/Director of Business Development of the Mesa-based valet trash and recycling company. Ally has been an AMA member for 4 years. “Not only have we been able to significantly grow our business through the AMA, but we have built strong relationships.”
Crezee credits his team for helping build those relationships. It was his team, he adds, that found unique ways to pivot and overcome all challenges as the COVID-19 pandemic wreaked havoc on Arizona’s apartment industry.
“Although there were some setbacks, we have continued to grow,” he proudly says. “We are grateful to continue adding new jobs constantly.”

sociation continues to provide us avenues for marketing and keeps us well informed on the multifamily housing industry and our partners.”
Despite a shaky economy – the fallout from COVID-19 – multifamily remains a brisk property type in Arizona. How is this benefitting Ally Waste Services?
“We thrive in multifamily properties,” Crezee says. “We love the enthusiasm from ownership groups and management companies who continue to build here. Arizonans love these new communities and all the amenities they provide.”
Personally, what does it mean to Crezee to be a member of AMA?
“It is being part of something bigger,” he says. “From a business perspective, the AMA is one of the best places to spend our marketing dollars. But personally, I love seeing all the good that is done through the AMA. Scholarships. Big Hearts. Charity walks and runs. I love to see the good that can be done when people get together around a charitable cause.”
