About Athens Services

Athens Services is a local, family-owned waste collection and recycling company that has been a fixture in the greater Los Angeles community for the past 60 years. We provide innovative, consistent, and quality environmental services to our more than 250,000 customers in the 50+ communities we serve. Through reuse, recycling, and composting, Athens diverts valuable resources from landfills.

Athens Services is committed to our future. We live on a finite planet and discarded material must be handled responsibly. By utilizing a Zero Waste system, we first reduce the number of materials created, thus saving natural resources, energy, and water. All actual waste material is then reused, recycled, or composted, reducing the number of discards to landfill. Zero waste is designed to safely return materials back to industry or soil without any ill effects on human, animal, or global health.
