Rail transloading services are available at several Ecology locations with access to Union Pacific Railroad and Burlington Northern and Santa Fe Railway.

There, we process it into bulk compost. Finished compost is sold in bulk to farmers, who use it to enrich their soil for crops, fruits, and vegetables. Wholesalers sell it to landscapers and bulk consumers, and to companies that package it for nurseries and home centers. Our composting farm sits on roughly 10 acres, with open space available to expand our operation as needed. --- > Ecology is one of the largest trucking services to and from the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, with complete access to all terminals. - Published: 2021-02-23 - Modified: 2025-05-20 - URL: https://ecoparts.com/port-transport-and-logistics/ Port Drayage Services & Bulk FreightDrayage involves the transportation of goods over a short distance, typically within the same city or metropolitan area. It's a crucial link in the supply chain, bridging the gap between ports, factories, warehouses, and retail outlets. So, whether you're importing, exporting, or simply moving goods locally, drayage services can ensure your goods reach their final destination on time and intact. Ecology's Drayage Division is one of the largest and most efficient trucking services for the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. We operate throughout Southern California with a fleet of 100% compressed natural gas trucks. We offer off-peak scheduling and have more than enough equipment to prevent shortages during peak seasons. Because we own and manage transfer stations and yards in Southern California, we can easily pick up and move containers and freight to and from the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach to meet time-sensitive shipping and receiving schedules. The Drayage Division hauls containers to and from the 13 terminals at the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach. We store the containers short-term (if needed) at our facility in Wilmington, CA, and deliver them to their destination when requested. This lets you control just-in-time deliveries and import product inventory, saving you headaches with inventory turns, cash flow, and warehouse space. With this system in place, we can deliver containers to port terminals precisely when they're scheduled for loading. For our export customers, we can pick up loaded end dumps, walking trailers,... --- > Ecology hauls millions of pounds of metal, equipment, and solid waste materials annually, and is one of the largest transportation businesses in the USA. - Published: 2021-02-19 - Modified: 2025-05-14 - URL: https://ecoparts.com/about-us/ About UsOne Way — the Right Way. The Ecology Way. Ecology was founded in 1966, when a business idea led Ham Siroonian, Charles Pratty Sr, and Charles Siroonian to Santa Fe Springs, California. They created a "do-it-yourself" auto wrecking establishment with an emphasis on cleanliness and customer service. This "do it yourself" auto wrecking was the first of its kind in the world. The Siroonians and Pratty were early adopters in the recycling movement. They soon realized that successful recycling required a fleet of trailer trucks to collect and move scrap metal and plastic from cities, businesses, and railroads (transloading) to processing plants. These recycled materials would be loaded into containers for transport to the Ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, and shipped to manufacturers worldwide. The Siroonians and Pratty also recognized the need for a reliable service to move solid waste materials to landfills. Today, Ecology hauls millions of pounds of metal, equipment, and solid waste materials annually. It has grown to one of the largest trucking businesses in Southern California and Arizona. The company remains family-owned. Siroonians and Pratty children and grandchildren now manage the company with the same high standards established by its founders. Ecology's commitment to the environment is more than lip service. We keep strict controls in all aspects of our operations, using the highest standards to protect nature and our employees. --- > Ecology Tucson supports class 1 railroads for derailment clean-up, transporting inoperable rail cars, and offers copper ore cleaning.

These materials usually require special handling, permits, and equipment to ensure safe and legal transport. Ecology has the experience, knowledge, and certifications to comply with all relevant regulations. This can range from transporting construction materials, hazardous waste, and bulk liquid to recyclables.

Refuse, or green waste, refers to biodegradable waste primarily composed of organic materials like plant waste — think leaves, grass clippings, and flowers — as well as food scraps. This type of waste is rich in nutrients, meaning it can be recycled back into the environment, contributing to the health of the soil and reducing the amount of waste sent to landfills. Therefore, it's crucial to collect and transport green waste appropriately. Doing so not only takes care of our environment but also encourages a sustainable cycle of growth and decay. The Green Waste Hauling Division at Ecology Ecology has been in the business of green waste commodity hauling since the 1990s, ensuring proper disposal and recycling. We use the latest technology and procedures, and will continue to provide superior green waste services for many years. What We Do We contract with bulk trash collection companies servicing cities and businesses for general trash pickup. Our bulk trailers collect solid waste, green waste, and mulch, as well as recyclables like metal, plastic, paper, and cardboard, from designated bulk trash collection sites. We then transport the collected trash to various recycling centers. --- > Ecology can move your equipment and material anywhere in metropolitan Phoenix and the Valley of the Sun Area. - Published: 2020-09-02 - Modified: 2024-02-12 - URL: https://ecoparts.com/flat-bed-end-dump-service/ Flat Bed & End Dumping ServicesEcology can move your equipment and material anywhere in metropolitan Phoenix and the Valley of the Sun Area.
