About Clean Harbors

Clean Harbors helps businesses manage their hazardous waste and protect the environment. The company collects, treats, and recycles dangerous materials to keep them out of nature. It also creates reusable oil products for cars and industrial machines.

The Service Portfolio

  • Environmental Services: Operates a network of incinerators, landfills, and treatment plants to dispose of hazardous and non-hazardous waste.
  • Sustainability Solutions: Collects used motor oil and re-refines it into high-quality lubricants and base oils for reuse.
  • Field and Emergency Response: Deploys specialized crews to clean up chemical spills and manage damage from natural disasters.
  • Industrial Services: Performs technical maintenance like tank cleaning and high-pressure water blasting at chemical plants and refineries.
  • Parts Cleaning: Provides tools and fluids to clean metal parts for manufacturers and automotive repair shops.

New Assets and Growth

  • Acquired HEPACO in 2024 for $392.2 million to expand its environmental field services business.
  • Bought Noble Oil Services in 2024 for $68.7 million to grow its oil collection footprint in the southeastern U.S.
  • Commenced operations at a new hazardous waste incinerator in Kimball, Nebraska, in late 2024 to increase disposal capacity.
  • Started building a solvent de-asphalting unit in Indiana in 2025 to produce high-purity industrial base oils.

What Makes the Company Unique

The company operates the largest network of commercial hazardous waste incinerators and landfills in North America, which are difficult facilities to replicate due to strict permit rules. It also maintains a circular business model by collecting millions of gallons of used oil and turning them back into sustainable products.

  • Net income was $86.6 million in Q4 2025, up 3.1% compared to Q4 2024.

Bottom Line

Clean Harbors has transformed from a waste disposal firm into a provider of circular sustainability solutions. Its growth through strategic acquisitions and specialized infrastructure has made it a central player in North American environmental management.
