SalaryAbout Us:
California Waste Services LLC (CWS) is an independently owned company founded in 1999, dedicated to delivering superior customer service in the Greater Los Angeles market. Originating from the sale of a roll-off dumpster hauling operation in the Western Rocky Mountains, our founders established CWS to meet the evolving waste management needs of the region.
CWS initially operated as a roll-off dumpster hauling company and later recognized the importance of integrating recycling for Construction and Demolition (C&D) waste. In response to California State Assembly Bill 939 (AB939) mandating waste diversion, CWS opened the first C&D processing facility in Southern Los Angeles County in 2000. With the recent acquisition of our second location in downtown Los Angeles, we continue to grow and innovate.
CWS attributes its success to the dedicated efforts of over 250 employees, many of whom have been with the company for over a decade.
Job Opportunity: California Waste Services (CWS) is rapidly expanding with the addition of a second location in DTLA, anticipating further growth in the Production department.
