In plain English
Republic Services is the second-largest waste company in the US: a fleet of garbage and recycling trucks, a national network of landfills, transfer stations and recycling plants, and — after buying US Ecology — a hazardous-waste and environmental-services arm. It collects, hauls, sorts and buries the country's trash on sticky, recurring contracts, and is unusually owned: Bill Gates' Cascade Investment is its largest shareholder with roughly a third of the company.
