Careers at Homewood Disposal

“We’ve always had a belief that the employee comes first. Because if you get the right employee, an employee that understands the vision, the customers automatically will be taken care of.” – Tom Yonker, Owner

IN IT FOR THE LONG HAUL
We’re dedicated to our co-workers and their families – and our co-workers are truly dedicated to Homewood Disposal. In fact, 54% of us have worked here for over 10 years.

Work where not only the grass, but the whole world, is greener.

At Homewood Disposal, you will work for a family-owned and operated, third-generation company that still adheres to the values it was founded on over 65 years ago: community, family, service, and stewardship. You will become part of a close-knit community of employees striving to make a better life and world for their families and for others.

You’ll become part of a family business that fosters a positive environment where employees work together toward common goals that support our shared values. You will learn about an industry that provides essential services to customers, but that also plays a crucial role in caring for the environment.

Since Homewood Disposal first started in 1956, the number of services we provide has tripled. That success is due in large part to the dedicated people–from drivers to office administrators–who deliver those services faithfully every day, year after year.

We welcome you to the greener side of the fence.
