WasteXperts, Inc.

Our Roots

In 1992, WasteXperts’ founder, David Lentz, envisioned more significant and better solutions regarding waste management and waste diversion for small apartment complexes. A forward thinker, Lentz, believed that trash and recycling management solutions were imperative as we only have one world that gets smaller and smaller every day. Lentz wanted to create a company that would make a difference to our communities and the overall environment itself. This is precisely what he did.

Lentz understood that innovative solutions were necessary to achieve sustainability goals. He realized that the development of best practices was vital to improving waste management, trash and recycling options for multi-family dwelling properties. By continually seeking innovative strategies and new techniques designed to improve waste sorting, waste management, and waste diversion, Lentz made his ideas came to fruition one satisfied customer at a time. After all, there is no Planet B.

With grit and determination, WasteXperts has earned a reputation as the go-to-source and middleman between trash disposal companies and multi-family dwelling properties. Responding to an increased demand for compliant, cost-effective, and efficient trash and recycling management solutions, WasteXperts now offers its services to all property types including but not limited to the following: commercial office, retail, and industrial buildings. Regardless of the challenge or property type, Wastexperts has developed and implemented customized trash and recycling management programs. Not only have these programs achieved sustainability goals, but they continue to reduce waste costs showing clients a combined annual savings of more than $1.5 million. This savings is inclusive of any WasteXperts’ fees.

But there is more to our story than trash removal…

Recently, Lentz’s vision for WasteXperts has evolved toward a mission of zero-waste. A smaller waste footprint gives the ultimate gift of a cleaner world to future generations. With innovation, improved technology, proper utilization of our resources, and by forming partnerships with other like-minded zero-waste facilitators, WasteXperts has shown an exemplary commitment to moving forward and being better prepared to manage waste, diversion, and recycling.

Company Values
