Solid waste Collection and Disposal yield measures the effect on revenue from pricing activities across collection, transfer, and landfill operations, excluding volume changes.
WM reported 3.6% Collection and Disposal average yield in Q2 2026, compared with 3.7% for the first half of 2026.
Yield is broader than list-price growth
WM includes base-rate changes, environmental and service-fee fluctuations, service-mix changes, pricing on new and lost business, and price concessions used to retain customers. Yield therefore captures realized pricing economics rather than a single posted-rate increase.
Pair it with Collection and Disposal volume and residential collection yield. Strong yield can support revenue even when underlying volume is soft.
