Due to the icy conditions, we are not running routes today, January 22nd. We will ALWAYS prioritize the safety of our people. Please keep your carts curbside and we’ll collect missed areas and missed commercial stops throughout the week. Thank you for your understanding. Please share and spread the word.

Merry Christmas, Tulsa!

Another year has come and gone and it’s time, once again, for our “Mr. Murph’s Unboxing Christmas” campaign. Only this year, we have a new twist. Any items that we can’t process through Mr. Murph, things like syrofoam and ribbons, are being sent to our new waste to energy processing plant at our landfill and turned in to power!

Think of how we’re helping Tulsa’s environment with this one-two punch. Last year, AWC set a Tulsa-metro area record, processing over 4 million lbs of paper, plastic, cardboard, and aluminum after Christmas. This year, the company hopes to crush those landmark numbers in large part due to its $10 million upgraded Material Recovery Facility (MRF).

Anything that doesn’t get recycled will go to our newly installed waste to energy plant at our landfill, American Environmental Landfill, where trash is being harnessed for over 4,500 homes in Oklahoma.

We’re thrilled to be part of this once again. Our campaign will last from December 26 through January 6th . All proceeds from the campaign will go to benefit American Therapeutic Riding Center (ATRC), a local charity dedicated to benefiting disabled children and adults through therapeutic horseback riding.

We encourage all of Tulsa to join us in keeping Tulsa clean by feeding Mr. Murph.

Terms and Conditions

Container placement and usage:

All containers will be placed on a hard or paved surface to prevent property damage. If a customer requests placement on an unpaved surface, this could result in increased costs if inclement weather prevents removal on the date requested. Costs could include: (1) a trip fee based on location and no less than $50, and (2) additional lease fees at current rental rate until ground conditions allow for removal. If the container is placed on an unpaved surface at the customer’s request, the customer assumes all responsibility for any increased costs and any damage to the ground or grass this may cause.

Due to safety concerns, please do not attempt to move a container once placed at your site. If you need a container moved before final pickup, please call customer service at 918-446-0023.
