Description
Waste Treatment & Disposal Services in the US
The Waste Treatment and Disposal Services industry handles hazardous waste, manages solid waste landfills and operates waste incineration plants. Industry demand is driven by consumer spending and manufacturing output, as the waste generated in the United States mainly stems from food waste, consumer products and industrial activity. Over the five years to 2023, industry revenue has slightly grown, benefiting from rising consumer spending which has led to an increase in manufacturing output. Furthermore, reduced recycling rates, as a result of the trade war with China, have also helped to sustain revenue during much of the period. Despite disruptions in 2020 caused by the COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, revenue has returned to growth since 2021. Overall, industry revenue rose at a CAGR of 3.1% to $25.9 billion over the past five years, including an increase of 0.3% in 2023 alone.
