5,200 independent waste haulers across all 50 states, DC and Puerto Rico: 3,345 garbage and refuse haulers, 1,803 roll-off and dumpster rental companies and 52 privately run landfills and transfer stations, each trading under its own name. Texas (433), Florida (327) and California (319) have the most, then Pennsylvania (289) and Ohio (255). The list starts from Overture Maps place data for garbage collection, dumpster rental and commercial waste services, plus hauler-named rows filed under junk removal or recycling. Taken out: 3,139 places at the same location as a site in one of our 11 waste hauler lists; 1,657 named for a national hauler (WM, Republic, Waste Connections, GFL, Veolia, Clean Harbors and others); 1,505 franchise or dumpster lead-generation listings; 128 on a hauler's own website; 7,740 businesses in another trade or public bodies (junk removal, scrap and can recyclers, medical and septic firms, city and county sanitation sites); 9,004 with no street address, a call-routing phone shared under several names, or no hauling word in the name or website; and 415 repeat listings of one place. The locationsWithSameName column marks the 4,570 companies that are the only row with their name. Phone is filled on 99.4% of rows, website on 85.3%, Facebook page on 39.8% and email on 32.3%.

The file has all 5,200 locations across 52 states in one download. Building the same list by searching one area at a time tends to miss places, and a missed place looks like a gap in coverage that is not really there.

## Questions

### What counts as an independent waste hauler here?

A garbage, refuse or roll-off dumpster business that trades under its own name and is not a site of a national or regional hauler, a franchise or a lead-generation network. Every place at the same location as a site in one of our 11 hauler lists is taken out, along with places named for WM, Republic, Waste Connections, GFL and other national haulers, dumpster franchises and call-routing networks, and places on a hauler's own website.

### Are junk removal companies included?

No. Junk removal is a labour-and-truck service sold mostly through franchises (1-800-GOT-JUNK, College Hunks, Junk King), not route collection or container rental, so those businesses are left out. Scrap metal and can recyclers, medical waste, septic and portable toilet firms and government sanitation departments are left out too.

### How do I keep only single-site companies?

Keep the rows where locationsWithSameName is 1: 4,570 companies. The other 630 rows share a name with at least one other row; a shared name is not always one owner.

### Can I find just the roll-off and dumpster rental companies?

Yes. Filter storeType to Dumpster / roll-off rental: 1,803 companies. Waste hauler (3,345) is the route-collection side, and 52 rows are privately run landfills and transfer stations.

### Where does the data come from?

Overture Maps place data (release 2026-08-19): the garbage collection, dumpster rental and commercial waste categories, plus hauler-named rows filed under junk removal or recycling, checked against our 11 waste hauler lists. Each row keeps its Overture place id, sources and last-updated date.
