Waste & Recycling News

Dive Brief:

  • After 18 years, Crain Communications Inc. is shutting down Waste & Recycling News.
  • The publication began in print in May 15, 1995, and was widely recognized as one of the best in the industry, championing the need for greater safety standards in what is regularly seen as one of the 10 most dangerous occupations.
  • The website's end follows the Aug. 5 closing of Waste & Recycling News' print operations.

Dive Insight:

We at Waste Dive are sad to see Waste & Recycling News go and wish all the best to those who helped make it an industry leading waste and recycling publication for nearly two decades.
