Company profile
researched Aug 2026DTG (DTG Recycle) is a Pacific Northwest hauling and site services company founded in 1999 with a single truck. It provides roll-off dumpster rentals in a range of sizes, general and construction-debris hauling, grapple truck service, portable restrooms and restroom trailers, landscape materials and organics with bark-blowing/blower truck delivery, and job-site support services such as sweeping, snowplowing, fencing and drywall scrapping. It also operates a scrap metal buy-back program, weighing and paying customers for metal brought to its sites.
Several offerings are delivered with partners rather than in-house: portable restrooms are supplied through DTG53, while certified data and product destruction and e-waste handling for phones, laptops and other electronics are provided through partner 1 Green Planet. Over time the company built out recycling and materials-processing operations through a long series of acquisitions, and states that in 2026 it streamlined operations to refocus on hauling β dumpster rentals, grapple trucks and portable sanitation.
Founding story
The company was started in 1999 with a single truck and a plan to serve construction, demolition and industrial projects with straightforward hauling service, later scaling into dumpsters, recycling facilities and site services.
Business model
DTG sells hauling and site services directly to project owners and contractors, renting roll-off dumpsters and portable restrooms, performing hauling and grapple truck work, selling landscape and organics materials for pickup or delivery, and buying scrap metal for recycling. Specialized services such as certified destruction and e-waste handling are delivered through partner companies (1 Green Planet, DTG53).
Revenue comes from equipment rental (roll-off dumpsters, portable restrooms and trailers), hauling and grapple truck service fees, site service contracts, sales of landscape and organics materials, and scrap metal purchasing and recycling.
Latest developments
The company describes a 2026 refocus on core hauling services β dumpster rentals, grapple trucks and portable sanitation β after years of recycling-oriented expansion. Its Renton facility was closed on 2025-12-15 due to evacuation for flooding, with customers directed to the Hudson Street site in Seattle and Recovery 1 in Tacoma.
