I second this

[@OATMEALCMC]

I used to haul trash in the northeast. I was one of the trucks that took the trash from the transfer stations to the landfills. The longest trip the garage takes to its final destination. Made some of the best money I ever made those days. All cash too! Most of us in the trucking fleet were young 20 somethings with more balls than brains. We loved the guys we worked for! Then in the mid to late 90s the feds came in and the bosses were all up on RICO. It wasn't until then that we realized who we were working for. After all that, all the money disappeared and you could no longer make two loads a day. Everything ran so much less efficiently. It wasn't worth doing anymore. Things were far, far better under mob management. I still think of those fellas and those times a lot.

[@jaketran]

fascinating!!

[@Dj.MODÆO]

Rates went up also after waste management wasn’t subsidized by illegal activities anymore. God only knows how many bodies are buried in those landfills though.

[@joecummings1260]

I hauled trash to landfill and scrap metal to the piers back in the 80s. The owners of the companies dressed in work clothes and they just might be the ones to bring you out some tires or filters when you were broke down on the road, then they get down and dirty and help you change them. They knew the business from the ground up comfortable out the repair shop as they were in the office

Better as in toxic waste being mixed with regular waste and people being threatened if they don't do business with company x?

[@pingwingugu5]

In Poland local government gives their friends permits to store toxic waste on random plots of land (abandoned factories, old mines ect.). After they fill up, or the government changes and revokes the permit, magically those land fills burst in flames. So the owners do not need to care about disposal and they get insurance money.

[@rickfrompawnstars5550]

Only kid from our high school whose family was connected, his father owned a Waste Management Business lol. Video checks out

[@waltermatthewberg]

The landfill where I live is owned by one family that leases the property to the borough. The family also controls the trucks that transport garbage to other landfills. They are paid by the borough per truck. They don't compact the garbage so more trucks can run. Consequently we pay $130 per ton for construction/demolition disposal which adds about 15% to the cost of a re-roof.

[@jonathanchambers4657]

My grandfather was a Norwegian immigrant who started a successful business a little ways from New York City. After making a bit of money he decided he wanted to try branching out into another business. He heard that there was a trash collecting contract available in a nearby town and started making inquiries. A little while later, he was in his favorite bar when a couple of Italian guys came asking around for him. They politely informed him that contract was already taken and he shouldn't pursue any trash collection contracts in the New York City area.
