Norfolk Disposal Services Ltd

What Norfolk Disposal Services Ltd does

Norfolk Disposal Services Ltd is a privately held waste management and recycling company headquartered in Waterford, Ontario, Canada. Founded in 1963, the company operates three core service lines: roll-off dumpster rentals (bins ranging from 10 to 40 cubic yards), NAID-certified secure document and media shredding, and a solid waste transfer station accepting household, construction, yard debris, roofing, lumber, clean fill, scrap metal, and electronics (E-waste). The transfer station is located at 811 Old Highway 24 in Waterford and operates Monday through Saturday on a pay-by-weight basis.

The company serves residential, commercial, construction, and self-haul customers across southern Ontario, including Norfolk, Haldimand, Brantford, Brant County, Aylmer, East Elgin, and Oxford County. Distribution is direct-to-customer through a website-based online ordering portal, toll-free phone sales (1-800-616-0347), email dispatch, and walk-in transfer station visits. The shredding division operates under a sub-brand (Norfolk Shredding) and offers both on-site and off-site destruction of documents, hard drives, electronic media, and x-rays, with one-time purge and recurring scheduled service options.

The business model combines rental revenue (roll-off bins), transaction fees (transfer station pay-by-weight and shredding services), and contract-based recurring shredding engagements. The company maintains a small headcount of approximately 10 employees and operates as an independent, owner-operated business with no external investors, no parent company, and no public listing. The competitive moat rests on NAID certification for shredding, the physical transfer station and vehicle fleet, and 60+ years of continuous local operation.
