Facility will support economic growth and help expand recycling capabilities in the region BRIDGETON, Mo., Oct. 15, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Republic Services, Inc. (NYSE: RSG) broke ground on a new state-of-the-art recycling center in Bridgeton.
Both trash giants raised dividends in 2026 and beat cost inflation with pricing power, but the income math between them tells a very different story for retirees who need checks they can live on without ever selling a share.
Republic Services' strong cash flow, pricing gains and raised 2026 outlook boost financial flexibility, but rising debt and interest costs pose challenges.
Energy price shocks and tariffs are two of the most talked-about factors driving inflation today, but it's easy for investors to miss another key catalyst: services prices. The services sector's breadth makes it uniquely relevant when prices are rising overall, and a handful of vital but often overlooked offerings are seeing increased pricing power alongside sustained commercial activity.
PHOENIX, Sept. 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Republic Services, Inc. (NYSE: RSG) will release its third quarter 2026 financial results after market close on Thursday, Oct. 29, 2026, and host an investor conference call at 5 p.m.
Waste Management spent a decade delivering nearly 300% returns while nobody called it exciting. Four other companies share the same quiet structural advantage, and their customers cannot leave without breaking something.
RSG is benefiting from strong pricing, margin expansion and cash flow, while Environmental Solutions adds another growth avenue.
Few industries match the defensive predictability of municipal solid waste management. Essential public service functions, high regulatory barriers, and contractually guaranteed price adjustments give the sector structural durability.
Republic Services remains a Hold, with strong fundamentals but a valuation offering limited margin of safety amid macro risks. RSG posted solid Q2 results, raising 2026 guidance for revenue ($17.2–$17.3B), Adj. EBITDA ($5.525–$5.55B), and Adj. FCF ($2.54–$2.575B). Dividend was boosted for the 23rd consecutive year, with a 7.2% increase and ongoing share repurchases, reflecting robust cash generation.
Some of the steadiest compounders in the market spend their days hauling trash, killing bugs, and stocking factory shelves, and their customers almost never leave. Here is why that kind of boring turns into decades of uninterrupted dividend raises.
