Pro Waste

What Pro Waste does

Pro Waste Inc. is a privately held, family-owned waste management, recycling, and dumpster rental company headquartered at 5300 McDermott Drive, Unit C, Berkeley, Illinois. Founded in 2014 and led by owner Marcus, the company serves more than 200 communities across the Chicago metropolitan area with three core service lines: portable restroom rentals (basic, standard, deluxe, ADA/handicap, and luxury trailer units), roll-off dumpster rentals in 10, 20, and 30 cubic yard sizes, and full-service junk removal (previously operated under the Junk-ITT brand). Supporting offerings include hand wash stations, sanitizer stands, and pump-out services for portable units, RVs, buses, and trains.

Revenue is generated through a mix of recurring long-term rentals (notably portable restrooms on construction sites), one-time rental periods (dumpsters for residential cleanouts and construction debris), and transactional fees (junk removal, pump-outs). Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; customers engage via a toll-free number (800-220-7057), an online quote request form, or a self-serve booking flow through the Vonigo third-party platform. Same-day delivery and removal are available across most of the service area, and the company maintains a dedicated dispatch, accounting, and 24-hour emergency line.

The customer base is dominated by three primary segments: event organizers and planners (weddings, festivals, corporate events), construction contractors requiring OSHA-compliant site sanitation and debris removal, and residential homeowners undertaking cleanouts, remodels, or seasonal cleanup. Landlords and property managers form a secondary segment. The company differentiates through local ownership, MBE (Minority Business Enterprise) certification through NMSDC, PSAI-certified employees, and a strong review footprint on Yelp, Angie's List, Home Advisor, and Google. No proprietary technology, AI capability, institutional funding, or parent company is disclosed; the company operates as an independent, founder-controlled enterprise within a single metropolitan market.
