Casella Waste Systems Inc

15 Hardscrabble Rd, Auburn , Massachusetts, United States

History

Casella's Refuse Removal (later to become Casella Waste Systems, Inc.) was founded in 1975 as a single truck operation in Rutland, Vermont. Our existing footprint stems from a combination of organic growth and strategic acquisitions.Until the late 1990’s, our growth was focused in the northeast United States with a mission to address our region’s waste management challenges intelligently, through an integrated solid waste platform, including waste collection, transfer, disposal, and recycling processing.

In late 1999, Casella acquired KTI, an integrated provider of waste processing services, and our footprint was extended to cover much of the eastern United States. The KTI acquisition greatly expanded our expertise and assets in material processing.In 2002, we recognized that additional in-market disposal capacity was required to meet a large, unmet need in the northeast. To develop capacity, we sought to differentiate ourselves in the solid waste market by linking recycling and other leading-edge resource transformation solutions to the solid waste disposal needs of municipalities.

Our SEED™ (Sustainable Environmental and Economic Development) program was conceived of and implemented as a framework to develop disposal capacity in a responsible manner in which the interests of all stakeholders are aligned. With the implementation of our SEED™ program, we have built sustainable infrastructure around our disposal projects that adds economic and environmental value beyond the traditional landfill model.The concept of sustainability is not new to Casella. For over fourty years the foundation of our business has been built on managing and conserving environmental resources for our customers and communities in a viable economic model. In 1977, we built and opened the first recycling center in Vermont, an early implementation of an environmentally and socially sustainable component to our overall business model.

Today, we are leading the solid waste industry with an innovative business strategy that seeks to create sustainable value beyond the traditional disposal model. We view waste as a resource for producing renewable energy and a raw material for manufacturing new products. Casella Resource Solutions today focuses on providing value-added professional services to commercial, industrial, municipal and institutional markets.

Casella Sustainability

Every two years, we issue a Sustainability Report describing the progress we are making toward our resource renewal vision. We write this report for a broad audience, including all of our valued stakeholders: our people, our customers, our communities, our regulators and legislators, and our shareholders.Please read our current and past reports to learn how we’re working with our customers to create value from their waste streams, improving the sustainability of our own operations by reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and building strong people and relationships to fundamentally change the way society views waste.

Dual Stream Recycling

Typically, our Dual Stream program requires customers to pre-sort recyclable commingled items (ie. glass, plastic and aluminum) separately from papers (newspaper, magazines, office paper, etc.). Both commingled items and paper are set out on the curb and collected by two trucks, or a truck that is divided in half, on their pick-up day.

Land is at a premium, energy prices are soaring, and environmental impact has become a concern shared by all. Making more with less. Every pound we recycle out of the waste stream is one less pound we have to mine, smelt or mill. One less pound we have to bury or burn. Cans become more cans. Paper becomes insulation. Steel finds its way back into cars. All of which uses less energy, preserves our natural resources and reduces the waste we generate.

Sustainable Environmental and Economic Development 

Casella has differentiated itself in the marketplace by linking recycling and other leading-edge resource management approaches to the solid waste disposal needs of municipalities. We continually work with local and state governments to design, permit, and build environmentally sound landfill disposal facilities to meet the region's ever increasing solid waste needs. We believe that it is important to provide our communities and our customers with in-market disposal options that eliminate the unnecessary environmental impacts of shipping waste to distant disposal sites.

Our SEED® (Sustainable Environmental and Economic Development) program was conceived of and implemented as a framework to manage disposal capacity in a responsible manner in which the interests of all stakeholders are aligned. Through our investment of time and capital to build a sustainable infrastructure around our disposal projects we have shifted the value of these sites from merely disposal to platforms that include sustainable projects.

Today, our landfill gas collection systems are not merely designed to passively capture gas; these systems are designed to actively extract gas to power landfill gas-to-energy plants producing clean electricity and to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions. Within our model, landfill sites are environmental campuses where resources are extracted from all aspects of the waste stream.
