Our new electric trucks are just ONE of the ways we practice sustainable waste handling.

Each year, WIN Waste waste-to-energy facilities converts 6.4 million tons of waste into renewable energy that helps power our communities. Our curb-to-grid approach diverts waste from landfills, reducing thousands of heavy truck trips, which helps improve air quality, lessens the burden on roadway infrastructure, and offsets the need for fossil fuels.
