Frequently Asked Questions
Is this the official Watco website?

Do transporters only pick up waste, or do they also dispose of it?
Many transporters focus on pickup and hauling, while the actual recycling, treatment, or disposal happens at another facility. In some cases, a company may offer more than one service, but that can vary.
What should I know before contacting a waste transporter?
It helps to know what kind of waste needs to be moved, about how much there is, and where it needs to be picked up. If the waste has any special handling, packaging, or paperwork needs, that is helpful to mention up front.
