Waste Management
www.wmorangecounty.com

At Waste Management of Orange County (WM), we are continually seeking innovative solutions to help our customers and communities achieve their economic and environmental goals.  The employees of WM are committed to providing outstanding service and achieving proven safety results, all while demonstrating a clear commitment to sustainability. Our goal is to reduce our ecological footprint in everything we do, including: using lower emission trucks, reducing waste and diverting reusable materials, and promoting and supporting environmentally friendly practices at work and in the community. These efforts make a tangible difference in Orange County. The reduced emissions total from WM's fleet of natural gas trucks is the equivalent of removing approximately 10,000 cars from Orange County roadways every day. WM's achievements in these areas have been recognized through the CalRecycle Waste Reduction Award Program, the Environmental Protection Agency's WasteWise Program and the California Department of Toxic Substance Control's Pollution Prevention Model Shop Program.
