ReMix Organics Company

What ReMix Organics Company does

ReMix Organics Company is a Rhode Island-based, mission-driven organics waste hauler that provides commercial collection services to businesses generating food and other organic waste streams. Founded in 2013 by Nat Harris and Leo Pollock as an L3C (Low-Profit Limited Liability Company), the company operates a small, regional fleet of custom-built collection trucks equipped with integrated high-powered pressure washers that clean each bin after emptying, eliminating the need for bin liners and reducing odors. The company serves commercial customers across Rhode Island and Massachusetts with a seven-day-per-week collection schedule, and it operates on a usage-based pricing model with no fixed monthly fees or equipment rental charges — customers pay only for the volume of organic waste they generate.

The company's core offering is the end-to-end collection and routing of organic waste to downstream processing partners, including regional farms for composting and anaerobic digestion facilities for renewable energy production. To date, ReMix has diverted nearly 40,000 tons of organic waste from local landfills. The go-to-market is direct B2B sales: the company conducts on-site evaluations of customer facilities, recommends bin numbers and collection schedules, and designs custom service plans per customer. Marketing emphasizes regulatory compliance with regional food waste bans, climate impact, and the superior cleanliness of the custom-built fleet versus retrofitted garbage trucks.

The business is founder-owned and operated, with no institutional capital, no parent company, and no subsidiaries. The L3C structure signals that profit is balanced against a stated social mission to fight climate change and provide a living wage to crew members. Operating geographies are limited to the Northeast USA, and the company maintains a small operational workforce consistent with its lean, self-funded regional model.

Scale indicators3 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• Waste Management Inc. Largest North American waste services company, offering commercial organics collection as part of its broader portfolio. Comparable as a national incumbent that competes with ReMix for commercial food-waste customers and increasingly for compliance-driven organics hauling contracts.
• Republic Services: Major U.S. waste and recycling company with growing organics processing and hauling capabilities. Competes with ReMix for commercial organic-waste accounts at scale and represents the type of national player that can pressure regional pricing.

Emerging players

• Bootstrap Compost: Regional commercial and residential food-waste collection service operating in the Northeast with custom collection routes and partnerships with local farms. Comparable as a smaller, mission-aligned organic waste hauler targeting similar commercial customers.
• Vanguard Renewables: Northeast-based organics-to-energy developer partnering with farms and food manufacturers to build anaerobic digestion capacity. Comparable because Vanguard both supplies and competes for organic waste feedstock in the same Northeast corridor where ReMix operates.
• Sustainable Organics: Northeast-based organic waste hauler and processor focused on commercial food-waste collection and composting. Comparable operating model and customer base in adjacent regional markets.

Direct peers

• Save That Stuff: New England-based commercial recycling and organics hauler serving Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and Connecticut businesses. Closely comparable regional competitor collecting source-separated organics from commercial food-waste generators in the same geographies.
• Casella Waste Systems: Regional New England-based waste and recycling hauler with an established organics and food-waste collection business. Operates in many of the same Northeast geographies as ReMix, competes for similar commercial accounts, and has been actively building organics hauling capacity, including the acquisition of Cero Coop.
• Cero Cooperative (now part of Casella): Boston-area commercial composting cooperative that collected food waste from local businesses and transported it to regional farms and processors. A direct historical competitor in the ReMix service area, now operating under Casella.
• Harvest Power: Specialty organics recycler operating composting and anaerobic digestion facilities with food-waste collection programs. Directly comparable business model: commercial food-waste collection feeding into soil amendment and renewable energy end markets.

Others

• Rubicon Technologies: Software and services platform focused on waste and recycling routing, including organics collection. Comparable as an enabling technology provider to the commercial organics-hauling industry rather than as a direct competitor for collection routes.
