Environmental Services

See how we lead

At Comerica, we’ve become a leader in environmental services by becoming experts in refuse and recycling businesses. From availability of capital and commodity market fluctuations, to limited cash flow, rising costs and aging equipment, our environmental advisors bring decades of experience.
