About Us

Atlas Disposal Industries was established in March of 1998, by a group of property owners, in response to the new recycling mandates that were passed by the State of California. Quickly, Atlas Disposal became the best choice for waste management in Sacramento based on responses from local companies. Atlas has held onto that throughout our 25 years by supporting the communities our employees live and work in along with our strong purpose of preserving the environment. Atlas Disposal ventured out and expanded operations in Salt Lake City, Utah in September of 2018 and Phoenix, AZ in December of 2021. We pride ourselves on being independently owned, locally operated, and aimed at preserving our spaces. Visit our website to learn more, atlasdisposal.com.
