Abstract (Document Summary)
On July 1 the city's residents will have their trash picked up by Phoenix Waste and Recycling Services, which brings Waste Management's 17-year rubbish-collection reign to an end.
Phoenix, which is owned by United Pacific Waste and Recycling Services of Pico Rivera, is a new trash hauler whose owner sold his previous trash business more than five years ago, [Michael Huls] said. Phoenix is a nonexclusive hauler in El Monte, where it has a significant market share of commercial and multifamily accounts, Huls said.
The city was also under pressure from the California Integrated Waste Management Board. It fined Gardena $70,000 for not meeting recycling mandates two years ago and has threatened to retroactively fine the city $10,000 a day if a recycling program wasn't in place by July 1, Huls said.
