About KES

Saving you time, money and resources

Headquartered just north of Pittsburgh, with more than twenty years of experience in the solid waste, medical waste and recycling industries.

Who we are

Keystone Environmental Solutions is a solid waste, recycling, medical waste and hazardous waste service management company headquartered just north of Pittsburgh, PA. We help commercial, industrial, retail, non-profit and many other businesses maximize service, monitor pickup levels and reduce costs.

What we do

We reduce your disposal bills through collective buying power in rate negotiations, right-sizing containers, starting or maximizing recycling, streamlining service days and invoice analysis. On average, clients save 10–35% net.

How we do it

We start with a free savings analysis and benchmark your pricing against similar Keystone clients. Then we negotiate, audit and manage, and we are only paid if we save you money.

Independent by design

We are not affiliated with any of our vendors

Your waste provider's primary goal is to keep you as a customer at the highest profit level possible. That is why agreements are so hard to get out of while prices keep climbing.

Because KES has no ties to any hauler or equipment company, we can bid your services openly and choose what is best for you.

FAQ

Common questions

Do I have to change haulers?

No. Your waste hauler and service levels can stay the same if you want. The invoice will just come from Keystone, at a lower price.

How does KES get paid?

Our program comes at zero cost to you. We are only compensated if we save you money, and our fee is included in your savings. For example, if we save you 20%, that includes our fee.

How long does the free analysis take?

Send us your most recent waste invoice for all locations. We compare your pricing with other Keystone clients that have similar service levels, distance from the landfill and monthly tonnage, and review our findings with you within 48–72 hours.

What is the benefit of using Keystone Environmental Solutions?

KES expertly manages all of your waste and recycling needs. We are not in business with or associated with any one waste hauler or equipment company, so we can search and bid for the services and equipment that suit your needs best while decreasing costs.

Why should I use KES instead of managing our waste stream on our own?

We use our sources, knowledge, buying power and industry relationships to make sure you are serviced at the proper levels at the best price. We do a complete analysis of all waste and recycling needs at one location or many.

Who do I contact for service needs, extra pick-ups, container maintenance or temporary dumpsters?

KES handles all of this for you. Just email or phone KES: one number, one call, one time.

What happens when you find a billing error?

We audit every invoice and find that 1 in 4 has a pricing error. We dispute the charge on your behalf, and anything we identify and get corrected is credited back to you 100% on your next invoice.

Can you provide sustainability or ESG reporting?

Yes. We provide custom reports such as landfill diversion, compactor and roll-off weight analysis, waste spend by category, and year-over-year waste expenditure.

No risk. Only reward.

Zero cost to you. Send your latest invoice and see your savings in 48–72 hours.
