What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

New York City is transitioning its commercial waste system from an open market to 20 nonexclusive zones, a program DSNY Commissioner Greg Anderson says is showing positive results. The program, which is serviced by three contracted haulers per zone, is expected to be fully implemented by the end of 2027. Contracted haulers, including Waste Connections and IWS, are successfully onboarding customers into the new system.
