SUSTAINABILITY MATTERS

Sustainability is in our company’s DNA. It’s what inspired us to make our waste collection and handling services as efficient and circular as possible, and it is what drives us today to be the most sustainable waste and recycling services provider in the nation.

Our commitment to sustainability is more important today than it ever has been. We are working hard to deliver ever more sustainable waste handling services — solutions that will recover and preserve natural resources, divert waste from landfills, and reduce greenhouse gases. Every company and individual must do everything possible to become more sustainable, and we are proud to partner with more than 150,000 customers who are doing just that by seeking a sustainable approach to one of their most essential needs.

Being a sustainable company means that in every moment we must consider how our operations impact natural resources, biodiversity and habitats, climate, people, economies, and communities — and ensure they have a net positive impact on each. This inaugural report shows our sustainability efforts and achievements during the year 2022, and it offers a look at what we’re doing today to make an even greater impact in the near and distant future.

The demand for the essential services we provide is increasing, while landfills are rapidly filling and the need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions grows more pressing. Our work contributes to the transition to a more circular economic model, which is urgently needed to avoid environmental and social impacts. We are proud to be a major driver in this transition.

Sincerely,

Robert C. Boucher Jr.

President
