The Unaudited Pro Forma  Financial  Data do not give effect to any  transactions
other than the purchase of BFI Rocky  Mount-Kinston  and the Other  Acquisitions
discussed in the accompanying  notes. The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Data are
provided for  informational  purposes  only and do not purport to represent  the
results of operations or financial  position of the Company had the transactions
in fact  occurred on such dates,  nor do they  purport to be  indicative  of the
financial  position  or results of  operations  as of any future date or for any
future period.

The purchase of BFI Rocky Mount-Kinston and the Other Acquisitions have been, or
will be,  accounted for using the purchase method of accounting.  The total cost
of the these  acquisitions  have been, or will be, allocated to the tangible and
intangible  assets acquired and liabilities  assumed based upon their respective
fair values.  The excess of the purchase price over the historical  basis of the
net assets  acquired has not been  allocated in the  accompanying  Unaudited Pro
Forma  Financial  Data.  The pro  forma  adjustments  are based  upon  available
information  and  upon  certain   assumptions   that  management   believes  are
reasonable.  The actual allocation of the purchase cost and the resulting effect
on income from  operations may differ  significantly  from the pro forma amounts
included herein.

The Unaudited Pro Forma Financial Data and accompanying  notes should be read in
conjunction  with the  financial  statements  of the  Company for the year ended
December 31, 1996 and related notes thereto  included in the Company's  Form S-1
Registration Statement (No. 333-25631).

                 Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Balance Sheet Data

(a)      Reflects  adjustments  resulting from the October 31, 1997 purchases of
         equipment and customer  contracts related to the solid waste collection
         business of Garner Area Disposal and American  Waste  Systems,  and the
         October 17, 1997 purchase of equipment and customer  contracts  related
         to the solid waste collection business of Royal DispozAll,  as if these
         transactions occurred as of September 30, 1997.

(b)      For purposes of the pro forma  information,  the excess of the purchase
         price over the historical net assets acquired has been considered to be
         goodwill  and  other  intangible  assets,  pending  the  completion  of
         appraisals  and  other  purchase  price  allocation  adjustments.   The
         adjustment reflects the following:

           Estimated fair of equipment acquired             $2,380,614
            Liabilities assumed                                      -

                                                        ================

(c) The components of cash used for the acquisitions are summarized as follows:

           Total consideration paid                            $ 7,968,908
           Proceeds from issuance of long-term debt             (6,301,453)
           Common stock issued                                  (1,417,455)
                                                           ----------------
           Cash paid for acquisitions                          $   250,000
                                                           =================

         The  consideration  paid to the sellers included the issuance of 63,634
         shares of the Company's common stock with a fair value of approximately
         $1.4 million.

         The purchase of BFI Rocky Mount-Kinston and the Other Acquisitions have
         been, or will be,  accounted for under the purchase method  accounting.
         Under the purchase  method of accounting,  the total purchase price has
         been,  or will be,  allocated  to the tangible  and  intangible  assets
         acquired  and  liabilities  assumed  by  the  Company  based  on  their
         respective fair values as of the acquisition date based upon valuations
         and other  studies  not yet  available.  For  purposes of the pro forma
         information,  the excess of the purchase  price over the historical net
         assets of BFI Rocky  Mount-Kinston and the Other  Acquisitions has been
         considered  to be goodwill  and other  intangible  assets,  pending the
         completion  of  appraisals   and  other   purchase   price   allocation
         adjustments.  The pro  forma  remaining  excess  purchase  costs  to be
         allocated  has  been  amortized  over  a  weighted-average   period  of
         approximately 25 years.

(b)      Reflects  additional  interest expense to be incurred by the Company in
         connection with the purchase of BFI Rocky  Mount-Kinston  and the Other
         Acquisitions.

(c)      From 1986 until May 9, 1997,  the Company was subject to taxation under
         Subchapter  S of the  Internal  Revenue  Code of 1986,  as amended (the
         "Code").  As a result,  during that time the net income of the Company,
         for federal and certain state income tax purposes,  was reported by and
         taxable  directly  to the  Company's  shareholders,  rather than to the
         Company.  The Company's S Corporation  status was  terminated on May 9,
         1997 and, accordingly,  the Company became fully subject to federal and
         state income taxes on that date.  Pro forma net income and earnings per
         share  amounts  have been  computed  as if the  Company  was subject to
         federal and all applicable state corporate income taxes for each period
         presented.
