LDR Delivers Emergency Dumpster Services for a National Grocery Retailer During Hurricane Beryl

Amid Hurricane Beryl, a national grocery retailer needed immediate access to waste management services to prevent food contamination and operational shutdowns across Houston. That’s when they turned to LDR Site Services.

The Emergency

Hurricane Waste Management Crisis

When projections for Hurricane Beryl only gave Houston six hours to prepare for landfall, a national grocery retailer had to find last-minute dumpsters to mitigate total food loss.

Key Takeways

  • Deployed dumpsters to 30+ retail sites in less than 6 hours.
  • Helped avoid food contamination and regulatory fines.
  • Enabled safe, efficient disposal during Hurricane Beryl’s impact.
  • Supported a major grocery chain’s emergency preparedness plan.
  • Resulted in a national contract for continued emergency support.

“With over a decade of experience serving Houston, LDR was uniquely prepared to navigate a massive metro area, a rapidly changing storm forecast, and all of the logistical challenges that come with such.”
