As North America 's leading waste services company, Waste Management is positioned to handle virtually any universal type waste disposal situation.

In addition to its own comprehensive national facilities, Waste Management also maintains a large network of subcontractors, all of whom adhere to Waste Management's high level of performance excellence and are covered by the same indemnification protections as those performed directly by our company. This combination of services provides Waste Management customers with the most comprehensive waste services available in the nation.

In addition to tradition services, Waste Management universal type waste disposal services include:

FUELS BLENDING
Waste Management's approved outlets can collect and store your waste petroleum products, combine them with similar products from other sources and then remarket them as fuels to specially permitted industrial facilities.

INCINERATION
Waste Management can arrange for your industrial or hazardous wastes to be transported to an appropriately permitted incineration facility for destruction in accordance with all pertinent local, state and federal regulations.

SPECIALIZED TRUCKING
Large-scale construction and remediation projects often require the use of oversized or specialized trucks. Waste Management, through its network of transportation specialists, can obtain any type of truck in any number for any location quickly and affordably.

BACKFILL SERVICES
Construction and remediation projects often require the importation of soil to fill excavation areas. As part of its service, Waste Management can arrange for such soil to be delivered and professionally applied in preparation for subsequent landscaping, paving or construction.

HHW CLEANUPS
In areas where Household Hazardous Waste centers have yet to be built, Waste Management can arrange for HHW specialists to stage community collection events to ensure that such wastes receive proper handling and disposal.

LIGHT REMEDIATION AND EXACATION SERVICES
In areas where Waste Management's remediation services are not available directly, the company will work with its local partners to help customers with small-scale soil excavation and clean-up projects.

SPILL RESPONSE, UNPLANNED REMEDIATION SERVICES
Accidents can happen any time, anywhere. When a chemical spill or other industrial accident occurs in an area too far from a Waste Management facility to allow an expeditious response, Waste Management can work with a local partner to get the right people and right equipment on-site quickly to minimize damage and return the area to normal as quickly as possible.
