Resourceful Environmental Services

What Resourceful Environmental Services does

RES, Inc. (doing business as Resourceful Environmental Solutions) is a privately held, full-service waste management company founded in 1997 and headquartered in Ripley, Mississippi. The company serves residential, commercial, industrial, and municipal customers across a tri-state region covering northern Mississippi, northwest Alabama, and southwest Tennessee. Its service portfolio spans household garbage pickup, yard waste and white goods collection, commercial dumpster service on monthly subscriptions, roll-off container rental (20 and 30 yard open tops plus compactors), industrial high-volume compactor service (including 40 yard roll-offs and special waste hauling), and 20-foot and 40-foot storage container delivery.

The operational backbone of RES is two company-owned Class I rubbish landfills in Ripley and Pontotoc, Mississippi, each operated with an on-site certified landfill manager and compliant with Mississippi Department of Environmental Quality (MDEQ) standards. This vertically integrated disposal infrastructure is explicitly positioned by the company as the core of the business, internalizing what would otherwise be third-party tipping fees for the majority of collected waste. Pricing is quote-based across most service lines, with the website providing a multi-step Request Quote workflow and a Soft-Pak-powered account management portal for commercial and residential customers.

The go-to-market is direct-to-customer with no third-party distribution or partnerships identified. Sales is conducted via phone, email ([email protected]), website quote forms, and a customer account portal, with service delivered through an owned fleet handling roll-off and storage container delivery plus scheduled commercial pickup routes. No revenue, headcount, ownership, or financial information is publicly disclosed, and the company shows no funding history, acquisitions, or public-market activity.

Broad incumbents

• Waste Connections, Inc. Major North American solid waste services provider focused on secondary markets and exclusive franchise collections, plus owned and operated landfills. Comparable vertical integration and mid-market geographic targeting, though at substantially larger scale.
• Republic Services, Inc. Second-largest U.S. environmental services company providing solid waste collection, recycling, and landfill disposal across 41 states. Closely comparable business model to RES (collection + landfill) but with national footprint and public-company scale.
• GFL Environmental Inc. Canadian-based diversified environmental services company with rapidly expanding U.S. footprint in solid waste collection, transfer, and landfill disposal. Comparable integrated waste services model and aggressive regional roll-up strategy overlapping RES's geography.
• Waste Management, Inc. Largest U.S. solid waste hauler with national collection, transfer, and landfill operations. Comparable as a vertically integrated waste services provider with owned disposal infrastructure, though operating at vastly greater scale and geographic breadth than RES.

Regional players

• Waste Pro USA: Privately held regional solid waste and recycling company serving the Southeastern U.S., including Mississippi, Alabama, and Tennessee — direct geographic overlap with RES. Comparable service mix of residential, commercial, and industrial collection.
• Rumpke Consolidated Companies: Family-owned regional waste hauler serving Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, and West Virginia with owned landfill capacity, collection routes, and recycling operations. Highly comparable vertically integrated regional waste model to RES, though serving a different geography.
