WM Welcomes Stericycle: Broadening Our Service Offerings

WM, North America’s leading environmental solutions provider, has officially acquired Stericycle.

For WM and Stericycle, our customers are at the center of all that we do. Our organizations share a relentless dedication to helping customers like you effectively and safely manage your environmental service needs in pursuit of a sustainable tomorrow. 

With our combined resources, WM will offer a wider range of exceptional services, while remaining committed to delivering high-quality, compliant solutions to our customers.

Who is Stericycle? 

Stericycle is a U.S.-based regulated medical waste and secure information destruction services company. Stericycle is a leading provider of compliance-based solutions that protect people and brands, promote health and well-being, and safeguard the environment. Founded more than 30 years ago, Stericycle has grown from a start-up in medical waste management into a leader across a range of increasingly complex and highly regulated arenas, serving healthcare organizations and commercial businesses of every size.

Why has WM acquired Stericycle? 

Acquiring Stericycle, including its Shred-It business, enables WM to expand the environmental solutions offered to our customers. By bringing our two businesses together, our combined teams will offer customers the ease and efficiency of a comprehensive suite of services and help them to achieve their sustainability goals. 

What to Expect

For our Stericycle and Shred-It customers, everything will remain “business as usual” at this time. 

All services you receive from Stericycle or Shred-It — including their invoicing and payment systems and other processes — will remain unchanged for now. Over time, as we integrate those systems and processes to maximize efficiencies, we’ll keep you informed of changes before they occur to provide for a smooth transition.

In the meantime, please continue to contact Stericycle and Shred-It, as you do today, for any service or billing related questions.

We are honored to have the opportunity to provide you with reliable, responsible and sustainable environmental solutions for your business.
