At Waste Management, we use all of the resources at our disposal - our landfills, recycling, and energy projects to create green solutions for businesses and communities across North America.
See how Waste Management creates clean, renewable energy from ordinary waste.
The average person generates 4.5 lb of waste per day. We reuse it to generate power.
Last year, we recycled enough paper to save 41 million trees. See how you can make a difference, too.
Waste Management landfills give back to communities and the environment in unexpected ways.
Easy ways to recycle your batteries, fluorescent bulbs, electronics and computers, bottles, cans, and paper.
See what we're doing to reach our goals by 2020.
Everything from dry cell batteries to bottle, can, and paper recycling kits.
We have all kinds of ways to help you go green. All you have to do is register.
Landfill-gas is a renewable source of energy endorsed by the Environmental Protection Agency as an alternative to fossil fuels, like natural gas, coal and oil.
Using landfills, we produce over 550 megawatts of electricity, which is enough to power more than 440,000 homes.
We even developed the technology to convert landfill gas into a fuel our fleet vehicles can run on.
We work with our government, business, and community partners to extract value from waste in ways that protect and enhance the environment.
