Wide-Moat Republic Services Continues to Realize Profit Margin Expansion
Business Strategy and Outlook
Following right behind industry leader Waste Management, Republic Services enjoys dominance in landfill ownership. As a fully integrated waste hauler, it leverages a vast network of collection routes and transfer stations, which bestow significant control over the waste stream, funneling trash from commercial, industrial, and residential end markets into its landfills. Outside of the large public providers that make up 40% of industry revenue, size falls off quickly and the market becomes fragmented.
