epublic Services is a major provider of environmental services in North America, offering some of the most comprehensive solutions in the industry—all from one source. Through its subsidiaries, the company has a diverse portfolio of solutions: recycling, solid waste, special waste, hazardous waste, and field services. Boasting 13 million customers, a fleet of 17,000 trucks, and more than 1,000 locations, Republic Services has established itself as a trusted leader in its field.

With its industry-leading field and industrial solutions, Republic Services can support even the most complex projects, including remediation, retail, lab pack, industrial cleaning and maintenance, vacuum services, transportation, tank and equipment rental, and disposal. The company’s certified experts and specialized equipment stand ready to respond to incidents at facilities, businesses, on land, in the water, and on rail. Whether dealing with emergencies, disasters, oil spills, hazardous volatile events, or biohazardous decontamination, Republic Services’ response teams are available 24/7 to deliver complete support from a single point of contact.

In Alaska, Republic Services operates with more than 125 employees across ten locations, including Anchorage, Fairbanks, Moose Creek, Kenai, Palmer, and Prudhoe Bay. The company’s recent acquisition of US Ecology Alaska—previously known as NRC Alaska and Emerald Alaska—further enhanced its environmental services across the state. As part of Republic Services, US Ecology Alaska utilizes its expertise to focus on providing environmental solutions within the state rather than residential or business waste hauling.

Republic Services’ facilities address an array of waste management requirements while providing services that cater to Alaska’s unique industries and needs. For instance, the Moose Creek facility offers regulatory- compliant thermal treatment of non-hazardous contaminated soils and sediments— representing a critical solution for Alaskans by Alaskans. This gives customers an environmentally safe and cost- effective option for treating and disposing of materials that are contaminated with PFAS, petroleum or oil and lubricants, and treatable granular media.

In addition, Republic Services provides specialized solutions and products in Alaska. A key example is its turnkey management of used automotive fluids, with available processing or reuse. The company manufactures a full line of cleaning solvent blends such as heavy-duty, environmentally friendly cleaners and detergents, solvents, windshield washer fluid, diesel exhaust fluid, and antifreeze/coolant formulations.

With state-of-the-art distillation and water processing technology, Republic Services enables businesses to enhance their sustainability efforts, minimize waste generation, and support recycling. It also offers a variety of Made in Alaska products to support customers’ specific environmental, industrial, and emergency response needs.

Republic Services partners with customers to help them achieve their environmental and economic sustainability goals. The company is committed to using innovative practices and technologies to support decarbonization and a circular economy. Consequently, Republic Services has garnered various third-party recognition; in 2024, it was ranked among America’s Climate Leaders by USA Today, the country’s Most Sustainable Companies by Barron’s, and the World’s Most Ethical Companies by Ethisphere.

Through its advanced waste management solutions and commitment to sustainability, Republic Services is fostering a cleaner, greener future.
