Serving with integrity since 1949.
ARC Disposal began as a family owned and operated business and, by providing excellent service and investing in great people and technology, grew to be one of the largest private waste haulers in the Chicagoland area. In 1999, the company became part of the team at Republic Services, one of the largest waste disposal companies in the United States.
Republic Services is one of the three largest providers of solid waste services in the United States, with over 12,700 dedicated employees, 56 landfills, 90 transfer stations, and 142 hauling operations. Republic is a Fortune 1000 Company, and is publicly traded on the NYSE. Widely recognized as the most financially stable company in the industry, Republic has assets of $3.2 billion and is the only company in the industry with investment grade ratings from Moody's and Standard & Poor's.

Local Presence, National Resources
As a Republic Services company, ARC Disposal offers the financial strength and stability, competitive pricing, and quality of service that only a large company can bring. For example, we are prepared for storms and other natural disasters that will overwhelm our smaller competitors. Combine the resources of a large company with our local management team, and ARC offers not only a compelling service proposition, but the promise of a lasting and responsive service relationship.
Our Commitment
ARC Disposal is committed to excellence in all areas of our business so that we can serve our customers better. We demonstrate this commitment by investing in equipment and technology and, most importantly, by investing in people. To protect our customers, employees, and our environment, we provide extensive training for our work force. Our drivers are trained in the Smith System, a driver training program that promotes defensive driving, as well as "Coaching the Refuse Driver," a National Solid Waste Management Association training program. Each month training meetings are held to review topics such as safe lifting, hazard communication, accident review, LockOut-TagOut, confined space awareness, spill prevention and control, and many other topics related to trash collection and driving safety.
