Waste Management is committed to protecting human health and the environment. This commitment is a cornerstone of all that we do and the following principals are applicable to company operations worldwide:
Protection
We will conduct all operations in a manner that protects the environment and our employees, neighbors, and customers.
Compliance
We will comply with all legal requirements and proactively implement procedures to ensure compliance.
Conservation
We will practice and promote the conservation of nature and the earth’s energy resources. Transfer stations are a key component in the advancements in environmentally-sound waste disposal technology and processes that Waste Management has led for decades.
Today, modern transfer facilities such as ours at the Port of Albany are carefully designed to protect the environmental integrity of the surrounding area – including the air, water and soil. Our transfer station incorporates advanced design features, including high-speed retractable doors and state-of-the-art odor controls.
Waste Management is committed to meeting and or exceeding all regulatory requirements. Each facility is maintained carefully with a goal to meet or exceed federal, state and local regulations.
