  4. We handle pickup. Trucks nationwide; rail for steady high-volume lanes.

  5. You get proof. End-destination records and a simple monthly summary.

Quick example

“A logistics warehouse had a customer cancel delivery of a truckload of popcorn kernels. They came to Waste Optima with their stranded inventory problem and within 7 days we had a PO in hand to purchase the entire lot, generating revenue for the logistics company and freeing up valuable rack space.”

FAQs

  • Do you buy product or charge for pickup?
    Both happen. Resale-ready product can carry value; mixed, low-value, or hard-to-handle items may have a service fee.

  • What’s the minimum pickup?
    Pilot from about 2,000 lb. Best economics at 20,000 lb+.

  • Do you take partially used containers?
    No. We only handle unopened, intact containers in original packaging.

  • Can you take unlabeled or leaking containers?
    No. Items must be intact, labeled, and safe to handle.

  • Will you provide destruction certificates?
    Yes—when destruction is the right path.

  • Do you handle bulk transfers or pump-outs?
    Generally no—we focus on packaged formats. We can refer you if needed.

  • How fast can you start?
    Often within days for standard lanes.

  • Will I get proof?
    Yes—end-destination records plus a simple monthly roll-up.
