Send us a text

Speaking with Nic Labelle and Landon Weigel we discuss the cycle of waste on the construction site. From initial planning, to handling, to recycling. We get a clear picture of some of the innovative ways WM is changing the industry. From robotics to AI, to IOT we learn that waste is not a simple industry. Front the “click” of a button WM is making it easy for superintendents to manage their waste needs on-site. Nic and Landon share their passion for the construction sector and the importance of relationships on the job site. This episode unpacks one of the industry leaders that is changing the market from concept to the construction site. 

CLARIFYING NOTES:

1. WM is now not the only COR certified hauler, but they were the first.
2. Cardboard/paper is not all sent overseas but also stays domestically for processing at WM’s and third party recyclers whenever possible.
