Interstate Waste Flow Report

Where does America’s trash really go? Waste Business Journal’s new Interstate Waste Flow Report follows the money and the tonnage: a record 58 million tons shipped across state lines in 2025, up 3.3% in a single year!

Discover why Ohio and Pennsylvania lead the nation in imports, how New York and New Jersey keep the trucks and trains rolling, and which handful of mega-landfills capture the lion’s share of the market. Packed with 15 tables and 8 figures, the report maps the busiest waste corridors, tracks the rise of waste-by-rail, reveals landfill-level import data, and shows how the map has shifted from 2005 to 2025.
