After a long-winded battle with waste-management company Republic Services, Simple Environmental Services Group has declared bankruptcy. The recycling and waste management company filed for bankruptcy with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court in July. According to Simple ESG’s filing, the company had more than 1,186,000 creditors, more than $1.05 million in reported assets and about $2.8 million in reported liabilities. The company used Republic Services — which has an exclusive franchise agreement with all municipalities in Southern Nevada — to collect clients’ trash. It also worked with other vendors to collect and haul recycling and provided additional services like graffiti removal. In a March 5 letter and obtained by the Review-Journal from Simple ESG to its clients, the company acknowledged that its clients had been receiving delinquent notices, service interruption notices, emails and phone calls regarding Republic Service accounts.
