The company will deploy a new compressed natural gas (CNG) fueling facility at its location in Canal Winchester.
Waste Management of Ohio senior district manager Frank Fello said through the facility, the company will have the direct capability to fuel a CNG fleet in the Columbus area.
"With the CNG fleet, the company will lower its fleet emissions, helping to reduce its dependence on foreign oill," Fello said.
The company said the trucks will emit nearly zero air particulates and up to 25% fewer greenhouse gas emissions.
