WE ARE ENVIRONMENTALISTS. EVERY DAY.
Waste industry professionals provide essential services that help maintain the fabric of local communities, protecting the environment and public health by efficiently and reliably removing and managing Ohio's solid waste.
WE MAKE GARBAGE GREEN
Waste industry professionals are environmental health and saftey stewards, keeping communities clean, collecting and processing America's recyclables, producing reliable and renewable waste-based energy, and integrating new technologies in our trucks and our equipment.
ENERGY FROM GARBAGE
Innovation and leadership from the solid waste industry make it possible for Americans to use waste as a source of renewable and sustainable energy in one of two ways: from landfill gas and from waste-to-energy facilities.
BE GREEN WITH WASTE
Americans produce about 4.3 pounds of waste every day. But there are things-big and small-that Americans can do to reduce the amount of waste we produce, recycle and compost more, and advance sustainable waste disposal solutions.
WHERE DOES GARBAGE GO?
How does the waste collection and management process typically work? Most people don't think about waste once it is picked up from their home. Learn about each step of the process.
SAFETY PROGRAMS
NSWMA helps industry employers and employees reduce injuries and accidents with a variety of safety videos, training materials and programs. You can help. Learn about the importance of driving carefully around garbage trucks here.
