Business Fact Sheet: Superior Waste & Recycling
Waste disposal has come a long way. From early pre-industrial times waste basically consisted of ash, wood, bones and vegetable waste; it was simply buried. Tools and implements were not discarded, they were repaired for reuse. The world population was smaller and less concentrated. Fast forwarding to today where congested cities, economic growth, social change and obsolescence have all contributed to enormous household, commercial and industrial waste challenges. Facts are, as a society we don’t really think about the waste removal industry and its importance to our environment. “Across the country, many communities, businesses and individuals have found creative ways to reduce and better manage solid waste,” according to an Environmental Protection Agency online article. Superior Waste & Recycling is one such business that is committed to environmentally sound waste removal practices.
