More WIRE STORIES about this company

 PROFILE
Waste Management, formerly USA Waste Services, is at the top of the heap in the US solid-waste industry (Allied Waste is #2). The company serves about 27 million municipal, business, and residential customers in the US, Canada, and Mexico. It has a network of landfills and collection operations, as well as waste transfer, disposal, and recycling services. In 1998 USA Waste bought the top-ranked but faltering Waste Management, taking the Waste Management name and many of its problems. To focus on its core North American operations, the company has sold off its international solid- and hazardous-waste management businesses along with its noncore North American assets (hazardous waste and power production operations).
