About Us – Gulf Coast Waste

Our Story

Started With One Truck and a Promise

My dad started Gulf Coast Waste in 1997 with one truck and a handful of customers. No fancy office, no corporate backing — just a guy who wanted to do right by his neighbors and build something his family could be proud of.

Over the years we've grown, but we've never stopped running it the same way. Every route is personal. Our customers know us, and we know them. That's not something you get from a big company.

We're Alabama-born, family-run, and genuinely happy to be doing this work. When you choose Gulf Coast Waste, your money stays local and your trash actually gets picked up on time.

Our Journey

How We Got Here

1997

Gulf Coast Waste Is Founded

Started with a single truck and a handful of customers on the Alabama Gulf Coast. A simple idea — show up, do good work, and treat people right.

Early 2005

Growing the Routes

Word gets around fast when you're reliable. New routes were added across Mobile and Baldwin counties as more families switched from the big guys to us.

2010

Back Door Service Launched

Customers kept asking if we could do more. So we introduced Back Door Service — walk up, grab the trash, done. Still our most popular plan.

2020+

Keeping It Going

Through every storm, every challenge — we kept collecting. Our customers rely on us and we've never missed a beat.

Today

Still Family, Still Local

27+ years in and nothing's changed. Same values, same commitment, same faces. We're proud to still be the name people trust.
