Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
SEGMENT REPORTING SEGMENT REPORTING
We report selected information about operating segments in a manner consistent with that used for internal management reporting. We classify our solid waste operations on a geographic basis through regional operating segments, our Western and Eastern regions. Revenues associated with our solid waste operations are derived mainly from solid waste collection and disposal, landfill, landfill gas-to-energy, transfer and recycling services in the northeastern United States. Our revenues in the Recycling segment are derived from municipalities and customers in the form of processing fees, tipping fees and commodity sales. Organics services, ancillary operations, along with major account and industrial services, are included in our Other segment. Effective January 1, 2020, we reorganized our operating segments as follows: we aligned our organics services and our major account and industrial services, with our Recycling segment to form the Resource Solutions segment, thus creating a single resource renewal-focused segment. We also moved our ancillary transportation services, which were previously included in our Other segment, into our Western region. Accordingly, as of January 1, 2020, our operating segments consist of the Eastern and Western regions and Resource Solutions.
