ABOUT THE COMPANY
Republic Services, Inc. (NYSE: RSG) is a leader in the environmental services industry. We provide customers with the most complete set of products and services, including recycling, waste, special waste, hazardous waste and field services. Our industry-leading commitments to advance circularity and support decarbonization are helping deliver on our vision to partner with customers to create a more sustainable world.
In 2025, Republic’s total company revenue was $16.6 billion, and adjusted EBITDA was $5.3 billion. We serve 13 million customers and operate more than 1,000 locations, including collection and transfer stations, recycling and polymer centers, treatment facilities, and landfills.
Although we operate across North America, the collection, recycling, treatment, or disposal of materials is a local business, and the dynamics and opportunities differ in each market we serve. By combining local operational management with standardized business practices, we drive greater operating efficiencies across the company while maintaining day-to-day operational decisions at the local level, closest to the customer.
Our customers, including small businesses, major corporations and municipalities, want a partner with the expertise and capabilities to effectively manage their multiple recycling and waste streams. They choose Republic Services because we are committed to exceeding their expectations and helping them achieve their sustainability goals. Our 42,000 team members understand that it's not just what we do that matters, but how we do it.
Our company values guide our daily actions:
- Safe: We protect the livelihoods of our colleagues and communities.
- Committed to Serve: We go above and beyond to exceed our customers’ expectations.
- Environmentally Responsible: We take action to improve our environment.
- Driven: We deliver results in the right way.
- Human-Centered: We respect the dignity and unique potential of every person.
We are proud of our high employee engagement score of 86. We have an inclusive and diverse culture where every voice counts. In addition, our team positively impacted 5.1 million people in 2024 through the Republic Services Charitable Foundation and local community grants. These projects are designed to meet the specific needs of the communities we serve, with a focus on building sustainable neighborhoods.
STRATEGY
Republic Services’ strategy is designed to generate profitable growth. Through acquisitions and industry advancements, we safely and sustainably manage our customers’ multiple waste streams through a North American footprint of vertically integrated assets.
We focus on three areas of growth to meet the increasing needs of our customers: recycling and waste, environmental solutions and sustainability innovation.
With our integrated approach, strengthening our position in one area advances other areas of our business. For example, as we grow volume in recycling and waste, we collect additional material to bolster our circularity capabilities. And as we expand environmental solutions, we drive additional opportunities to provide these services to our existing recycling and waste customers.
Recycling and Waste
We continue to expand our recycling and waste business footprint throughout North America through organic growth and targeted acquisitions. The 13 million customers we serve and our more than 5 million pick-ups per day provide us with a distinct advantage. We aggregate materials at scale, unlocking new opportunities for advanced recycling. In addition, we are cross-selling new products and services to better meet our customers’ specific needs.
Environmental Solutions
Our comprehensive environmental solutions capabilities help customers safely manage their most technical waste streams. We are expanding both our capabilities and our geographic footprint. We see strong growth opportunities for our offerings, including PFAS remediation, an increasing customer need.
Sustainability Innovation
Republic’s recent innovations to advance circularity and decarbonization demonstrate our unique ability to leverage sustainability as a platform for growth.
The Republic Services Polymer Center is the nation’s first integrated plastics recycling facility. These innovative sites process rigid plastics from our recycling centers, producing recycled materials that promote true bottle-to-bottle circularity. We also formed Blue Polymers, a joint venture with Ravago, to develop facilities that will further process plastic material from our Polymer Centers to help meet the growing demand for sustainable packaging. We are building a network of Polymer Centers and Blue Polymer facilities across North America.
Our customers are increasingly looking for decarbonization solutions, and we are leveraging our network of landfills to meet that need. Republic is committed to harnessing landfill gas, a natural byproduct of decomposing waste, and converting it to energy. Republic has partnered with renewable gas developers to construct Renewable Natural Gas (RNG) plants at our landfills, expanding beyond the 77 projects we currently have to make progress towards our goal to beneficially reuse 50% more biogas by 2030 (2017 baseline year).

Search Shop Technician Jobs in OhioShop Technician Jobs in Ohio: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies sponsor visas for shop technicians in Ohio?
Ohio's manufacturing-heavy economy means employers like Honda of America in Marysville, Parker Hannifin in Cleveland, and Worthington Industries in Columbus have histories of sponsoring skilled technical workers. Large automotive suppliers and industrial equipment manufacturers across the state are among the more likely sponsors, as they operate at scale and have established HR infrastructure to support visa petitions.
Which visa types realistically fit shop technician roles in Ohio?
Shop technician roles are hands-on, skilled-trade positions and do not qualify as specialty occupations requiring a directly related bachelor's degree, so H-1B visa, E-3 visa, and H-1B1 visa do not apply. H-2B visa covers temporary or seasonal non-agricultural work and is the most common nonimmigrant path. For long-term sponsorship, EB-3 green cards covering skilled workers with two or more years of experience are the primary route. F-1 OPT can apply for recent graduates whose coursework relates to the role.
How to find shop technician visa sponsorship jobs in Ohio?
Migrate Mate lists Ohio shop technician roles from employers with verified sponsorship histories, so you can search specifically within this state and role category without sifting through positions that don't offer visa support. Because shop technician sponsorship tends to come through H-2B or EB-3 pathways rather than H-1B, filtering for employers active in those categories is especially useful when targeting Ohio's manufacturing and industrial sectors.
Which cities in Ohio have the most shop technician sponsorship jobs?
Columbus and its surrounding suburbs, including Marysville and Dublin, concentrate a significant share of Ohio's sponsored technician openings due to Honda's large manufacturing presence. Cleveland supports demand through its aerospace and industrial equipment base, while Toledo draws on its automotive parts manufacturing history. Dayton and Cincinnati also generate consistent openings tied to aerospace, defense, and general manufacturing employers in those metro areas.
Are there any Ohio-specific factors that affect shop technician visa sponsorship?
Ohio's status as a leading U.S. manufacturing state means technician demand is relatively stable compared to other states, but sponsorship through H-2B still requires employers to demonstrate that qualified U.S. workers are unavailable for the specific opening. Seasonal production cycles at automotive plants can influence whether a need is classified as temporary or permanent, which in turn affects whether H-2B or an EB-3 green card petition is the appropriate path. Union agreements at some Ohio facilities may also shape how employers structure sponsored positions.
What is the prevailing wage for sponsored shop technician jobs in Ohio?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
