Due to winter weather, American Waste Control will adjust operations to prioritize safety.

Please leave carts at the curb. Any additional bagged household trash placed beside the cart will be collected at no additional charge, as conditions allow.

Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.

🚨 Service Update – Saturday Clean-Up Efforts 🚨

We appreciate your patience as we continue working through this challenging week. Our crews are doing everything possible to catch up, and we want to provide an update:

    •    Residential Cleanup: We will be running additional routes on Saturday to service any missed customers. If your cart has not yet been collected, please leave it curbside, and we will do our best to service it.

    •    Commercial Cleanup: All commercial routes will also be running on Saturday as we work to get caught up.

If your residential service is still missed—whether due to road conditions or another factor—please set your cart out on your regular service day next week, including any extra bags outside the cart. We will collect everything at no additional charge.

Thank you for your patience and support. We know this has been a chaotic and difficult week, and we truly appreciate your understanding as we work to get everything back on track.

Compaction
With every load, American Waste Control attempts to reduce the frequency of pickups and the carbon footprint by compacting the trash to take up less space. In real-world experience, this results in an average of 40% fewer trips—in effect reducing fuel consumption and air pollution by our trucks by 40%.

Smart Routing
Intelligent and highly efficient routing helps cut AWC’s carbon footprint substantially as will its practice of regularly scheduled route audits.

GPS
American Waste Control utilizes on-board computing and GPS to paint a detailed, highly-accurate picture of all route activity: pickups, breaks, landfill activity, and more. The incorporation of cameras create a complete routing system to help AWC manage its fleet, drivers, and routes in real-time.

Fuel Additive
Another way we help the environment is with the use of a special additive, called urea that goes into the diesel fuel of our new trucks. Urea assists in generating a cleaner fuel mixture for our vehicles as we strive to reduce pollution and our carbon footprint for our daily activities.

Paperless Billing
We offer paperless billing and electronic payment options through our website for customers who choose to go green.
