Description

Dan and Simon dive deep into two of North America’s waste-disposal giants — Canada’s Waste Connections and the U.S.-based Waste Management. They break down business models, market share, acquisition strategies, financial performance, and the critical role of landfill ownership. From healthcare waste growth to automation’s impact, and from regulatory risks to why “boring” garbage companies can be long-term portfolio anchors, this episode unpacks the dirty details of a surprisingly resilient industry.
