Product Destruction

We make your sensitive off-spec, obsolete or damaged products disappear. Safely. Efficiently. Affordably.

Upstream guarantees the complete destruction of any unwanted products or sensitive waste materials that you must have utterly destroyed. We can literally make them disappear - along with any legal liabilities - safely, efficiently and affordably.

We achieve this with a national network of internal Waste Management resources and strategic partners. This comprehensive network enables Upstream to offer you many different product-destruction options, to fit your specific goals.

Choosing Upstream for your product-destruction needs means you'll benefit from having a single point of contact to our nationwide infrastructure - including a toll-free 800 number to call from anywhere nationwide. We also offer you the convenience of multiple local hubs, our extensive logistics capability and our consistent operating procedures. These are things you simply can't get from local vendors with limited resources.

WM Recycle America, a division of Waste Management, provides you with a broad range of plastic, glass, paper and metal recycling services that can transform your products into marketable commodities.

Wheelabrator, another division of Waste Management, offers you the ability to turn your products into clean, green energy to power homes nationwide. What's more, Wheelabrator has supervised the complete and compliant destruction of highly sensitive materials ranging from proprietary business documents to discarded healthcare products to pharmaceutical waste.

For those products that you may not want to recycle, Waste Management offers you one of North America's largest landfill systems, where we responsibly dispose of virtually any type of products.

We can also help you with any tax issues relevant to the destruction of your products. For example, we can assist you with getting those tax refunds that are due when alcoholic products are destroyed properly. We will provide you with a written guarantee: a certificate assuring you of 100% destruction of your sensitive materials or products. When it comes to product destruction, you can rest assured we're the one resource that guarantees we'll get it right.
