Driven by our vision, powered by our values, to live our purpose.
Stella began its journey in the Houston market in 1992 with a single transfer station. Over the years, we have expanded our footprint to 24 transfer stations, enabling us to process over 350,000 tons of waste per month. Our organization is committed to serving our customers, employees, and stakeholders with integrity, people-first approach, safety, service, and a determination to deliver results that make a memorable and measurable difference.
Our history is a testament to our vision of becoming the premier national transfer station management and logistics services company. As we continue to grow, our values of integrity, people, safety, service, and results-driven approach remain the cornerstone of our operations and interactions with customers, employees, and stakeholders.
