Solid Waste Management
Municipal solid waste (MSW) – also referred to as residual, solid, or general waste – is the everyday non-recyclable trash your business creates. It’s the garbage that can’t be separated with other recycling streams or disposed of with food or organic waste. Responsible solid waste management is vital to make sure it doesn’t end up in landfills.
More than 290 million tons of municipal solid waste are generated across the USA every year. This includes households and businesses and covers a wide range of materials and waste types – from milk cartons and plastic cups to car tires and furniture. At Business Waste, our sustainable municipal solid waste management services keep it away from landfills.

Municipal solid waste examples
All businesses generate some level and type of municipal solid waste that can’t be recycled with other streams. It could simply be food scraps and containers from the office canteen or plastic packaging that’s not yet recyclable. Offices, stores, garages, restaurants, and other industries all create solid waste that needs to be managed responsibly.
MSW is different from industrial, hazardous, and construction waste types (which should be separated and managed safely). Solid waste is a broad definition, but it generally refers to common kinds of trash like you’d throw away in your garbage cans at home. Common municipal solid waste examples include:
- Food containers (takeout boxes)
- Packaging (plastic wrap, snack wrappers and packets)
- Cleaning products (used wet wipes and cloths)
- Food scraps (bones and small bis of leftovers)
- Contaminated goods (wet newspapers, damaged cardboard boxes)
Solid waste collection for businesses
Arrange solid waste collection from your business on a daily, weekly, or fortnightly basis. Combine the best commercial dumpster and garbage can sizes with a removal schedule that’s efficient and cost-effective. This ensures dumpsters of solid waste are collected when they’re full to maximize value for your business and operate efficiently.
Regular and reliable solid waste pickup helps keep your business clean and clear, creating a pleasant environment for staff and customers. It prevents any bad odors from developing from garbage being left too long on your site. Schedule solid waste collection by waste management professionals to get rid of your commercial trash safely, legally, and sustainably.
Methods of solid waste disposal
Sadly, around 146 million tons of municipal solid waste end up in landfills across the USA every year. At Business Waste, we work to keep solid and general waste away from landfill sites and partner with suppliers who provide sustainable solutions. There are alternative methods of solid waste disposal, which include:
- Waste-to-energy – combustion or waste-to-energy incineration is a method that burns non-recyclable trash to generate electricity. This puts the solid waste to better use than rotting in landfills, but the process of combustion still releases pollutants such as carbon dioxide and dioxins that have a negative environmental impact.
- Incineration – another solid waste disposal method often used is incineration. General waste is burned in a controlled environment, which reduces the volume and weight of the solid waste and turns it into ash. The process also creates pollutants but saves valuable landfill space.
- Recycling and composting – separating materials within commercial solid waste where possible is a sustainable solution. Food waste can be removed and sent for composting or anaerobic digestion to create energy. Recyclable materials should be removed and sent to recycling plants for reuse.
