Family Owned & Operated Bixby Trash Service

Several of our drivers and service representatives live, play, worship, and raise their families in Bixby, Oklahoma. As a locally owned and operated family business, we understand the importance of community. We make it a priority to know and help you right here in our home.
Our staff is proud to call the garden spot of Oklahoma their home, and we are proud to be serving this city.

Founded by visionary Kenneth Burkett, American Waste Control is the product of more than 50 years in the waste collection business. Kenny was inspired by family and challenged by his own work ethic and grit to never give up—no matter how hard the work became, no matter how many challenges the day brought him. And because he was hauling trashing all day and working on his truck all night, there was no shortage of challenges Kenny faced. Because of the price Kenny was willing to pay over the years, American Waste Control has grown from a one-truck, one-man operation to a 185-truck fleet with more than 250 employees.
