REPORT OF INDEPENDENT ACCOUNTANTS


To the Board of Directors and Shareholders
Container Corporation of Carolina:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Container Corporation of
Carolina as of December 31, 1995 and the related statements of income,
shareholders' equity, and cash flows for the year then ended.  These financial
statements are the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audit.

We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards.  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of
material misstatement.  An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An audit
also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant
estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial
statement presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis
for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of Container Corporation of
Carolina as of December 31, 1995 and the results of its operations and its
cash flows for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

As discussed further in Footnote 10, on May 17, 1996, the Company entered into
an agreement and plan of merger.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.     Significant Accounting Policies:

The data presented for the three months ended March 31, 1996 is unaudited and
includes, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair
presentation of financial position and results of operations as of and for
such date and period.

Container Corporation of Carolina (the "Company") is primarily in the
business of refuse hauling and disposal.  Substantially all services are
provided to commercial and residential customers located in North Carolina,
South Carolina, and Georgia.  The more significant accounting policies are
as follows:

BUSINESS COMBINATIONS - The Company had minor acquisitions during 1995, all
of which have been recorded using the purchase method of accounting.

CASH - All cash is principally held by one high quality financial
institution.   The balance held at December 31, 1995 and at certain times
during the three months ended March 31, 1996 exceeded FDIC insured limits.

PARTS AND SUPPLIES INVENTORIES - Parts and supplies inventories are stated
at the lower of cost (determined by the first-in, first-out method) or
market.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT - Property and equipment are carried at cost, net of
accumulated depreciation.  Depreciation is calculated primarily by the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, ranging
from five to forty years.  Gains or losses from dispositions are charged or
credited to income in the period of disposal.  Maintenance, repairs and
renewals of a minor nature are charged to expense as incurred.  Renewals
and replacements that extend the useful lives of property and equipment are
capitalized.

INTANGIBLE ASSETS - Intangible assets include goodwill, customer lists, and
non compete agreements, which are carried at cost.  The intangible assets
are amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of
the assets ranging from 3 to 20 years.

INCOME TAXES - The Company is taxed as an S Corporation.  Under the S
Corporation election, taxable income or loss is allocated directly to
shareholders.

CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK - The concentration of credit risk with
respect to trade accounts receivable is limited due to the large number of
customers comprising the Company's customer base, the contractual
arrangement with certain types of customers and the dispersion of the
customer base throughout North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia. 
Generally, the Company does not require collateral or other security to
support trade accounts receivable.

EARNINGS PER SHARE - The computation for earnings per share is based on the
weighted average shares outstanding during each period.  The weighted
average number of shares outstanding was 110.78 for both periods.
    
ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial statements in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at December
31, 1995 and March 31, 1996 and the reported amounts of revenues and
expenses during the periods \then ended.  Actual results could differ from
those estimates.  More significant estimates include environmental
reserves, insurance loss reserves, depreciation of equipment and intangible
assets, and bad debt reserves.

August 1996.  Borrowings under the line of credit are limited in amount to
certain borrowing base requirements, as defined in the agreement, not to

respectively.  The line of credit and term bank loan contain various
covenants, the most restrictive of which requires the Company to maintain a
minimum net worth.  The Company has received a letter of intent from a
financial institution to refinance the Term Loan and Working Capital line
of credit.

Principal payments are required on long-term debt as follows:

                    1996          $ 14,942,949
                    1997               559,481

All property and equipment, accounts receivable, inventories and proceeds
from officers' life insurance are pledged as collateral on the Company's
term bank loans and line of credit and other asset purchase financing
arrangements. 

5.     Employee Benefit Plans:

The Company has a profit-sharing plan covering substantially all employees.
The plan provides for participant contributions on a pretax compensation
reduction bases (a "401(k)" arrangement), whereby employees meeting certain
minimal standards of service may elect to defer receipt of 1% to 15% of
annual compensation and contribute that amount to the plan.  The Company
matches these contributions up to 4% of covered compensation at a
percentage determined annually by the board of directors.  In addition to
contributions required by the "401(k)" arrangement, the Company may make
additional annual discretionary contributions, as authorized by the board
of directors.  Contributions to the plan were $67,601 and $29,049 for the
year ended December 31, 1995 and the three months ended March 31, 1996,
respectively.

The Company also provides selected employees participation in an unfunded
nonqualified deferred compensation plan, under which participants may elect
to defer any portion of the annual compensation.  The Company provides an
annual return of 7.5% on deferred amounts, and may choose to make
discretionary contributions to the plan.


<PAGE>

5.     Employee Benefit Plans, continued:

The Company also provides four employees deferred compensation contracts
which provide benefits of $4,000 per month for 125 months per employee.
The benefits are payable the later of the employee's retirement or age 65.
The benefit may also be paid if the employee terminates employment other
than by his voluntary action or for cause before age 65.  In that event,
the amount of the benefit depends on the employees years of service with
the Company.  Death benefits provided under the deferred compensation
arrangements are funded with life insurance policies on the lives of the
employees.  The Company recognizes the cost of insurance expense currently,
deferred compensation expense is recognized over the period of the
employees active employment, beginning at the first vesting period under
the contract.    

6.     Environmental Remediation:

In January 1996, the Company was notified by the South Carolina Department
of Health and Environmental Control ("DHEC") that the Company's transfer
station was in violation of certain regulations.  The Company has accrued
$300,000 for remediation of its transfer station, and $120,000 in related
costs during the year ended December 31, 1995.  The transfer station
remediation costs are estimated by an independent environmental engineer at
between $175,000 and $400,000 based on information and data provided by
DHEC and the Company.  If site contamination is greater than currently
estimated, the remediation costs could be substantially higher than the
amount accrued.  The Company and its advisors are currently developing a
site testing and remediation plan to be approved by DHEC.

7.     Related Party Transactions:

Amounts due from affiliates include $521,236 due from shareholders and
affiliated companies at December 31, 1995 and $870,234 due under notes

9.     Commitments/Contingencies:

CCC entered into a purchase commitment in October 1995, whereby the Company
is required to dispose of a minimum of 6,500 tons of non-hazardous MSW
(municipal solid waste) per month collected in the greater Columbia area at
Northeast Sanitary Landfill (NESL), in Columbia, South Carolina, over the
next ten (10) years.  The price of disposal per each ton to be at "Base
Rate" of $19.75 at this minimum required volume level.  The base rate will
increase by not less than 5% nor more than 9% per year.  CCC  has entered
into an agreement not to compete with NESL during this period of time.

In addition, CCC is committed to dispose of all waste taken to its transfer
station facility in Fort Mill, South Carolina, at NESL, through February
1996.

10.     Subsequent Event:

On May 17, 1996 the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger. 
This agreement, to be accounted for as a pooling of interest, calls for the
shareholders of the Company to receive 6,842,105 shares of Allied Waste
Industries, Inc. (AWIN).  AWIN shares closed at $9.25 on May 17, 1996. 
This transaction is expected to close on or about June 30, 1996.  As part
of this agreement it is expected that the term loan and working capital
line of credit discussed in Footnote 7 will be extinguished.

3. Pro Forma Adjustments

The pro forma adjustments reflected in the pro forma combined financial
statements give effect to the following:

     Pro Forma Combined Balance Sheet:

     (a)     To reflect the expected repayment of debt subsequent to the 
             closing of the acquisition with proceeds from the $80 million
             credit agreement between the Company and NatWest Bank, N.A. as
             agent (the "Credit Agreement").

     (b)     To reflect the conversion of convertible debt into 362,040 shares
             of the Company's common stock.

The adjustment to reflect the issuance of common stock to the stockholder of
Container Corporation of Carolina is offset by the adjustment to reflect the
elimination of investment in subsidiary upon closing of the acquisitions.

     Pro Forma Combined Statements of Operations:

     (a)     To reflect adjustments to selling, general and administrative
             expenses to record the amortization of goodwill recorded in
             connection with the Purchase Acquisitions.

     (b)     To eliminate rent expense and rental revenue between Allied and
             IDC.

     (c)     To reflect interest expense on debt issued or assumed in
             connection with acquired companies.

         
4.     Financing Transactions

In January 1995, the interest rate on the $100 million Senior Subordinated
Notes issued in January 1994 ("the Notes") increased from 10.75% to 12.0%. 
In January 1995, the Company issued 11,709,602 shares of common stock of
which 3,529,412 shares were issued for the conversion of 3,000 shares of
Series E preferred stock which were issued in December 1994 in connection
with the acquisition of the Midwest Entities.  The pro forma financial
statements assume that the 11,709,602 shares of common stock were issued on
January 1, 1995 and remove the effect of dividends declared and paid in
common stock on the Series E preferred stock.  The pro forma financial
statements assume the conversion of approximately $5 million of convertible
subordinated debt into 1,483,680 shares of common stock as of January 1,
1995.  In addition, the pro forma financial statements assume (i) the sale
of 7,606,282 shares of  common stock in January 1996 and (ii) the issuance
of approximately 7.7 million shares of common stock upon conversion of
certain preferred stock and convertible debt and exercise of warrants
(collectively, the "Public Offering").

In December 1995, certain holders of preferred stock, convertible debt and
warrants converted their preferred stock or convertible debt into or
exercised their warrants for, an aggregate of approximately 8 million
shares of Common Stock and Inducement Conversion Shares.  In addition, the
Company completed a Public Offering in January 1996.

The transaction adjustments reflected in the pro forma combined financial
statements give effect to the following:

(a)  To reflect the increase in interest expense on the $100 million

     issuance of 1,483,680 shares of common stock upon the conversion of

      exercise of the underwriters option to purchase an additional
      1,106,282 shares of Common Stock.

(d)   To remove the effect of dividends declared and paid in common
      stock on the Series E Preferred Stock related to the issuance of
      the 11,709,602 shares common stock to TPG Partners, L.P., of which

5.     Pro Forma Net Income Per Common Share

Pro forma net income per common share is calculated by dividing
pro forma net income to common shareholders less requirements on
Series D preferred stock, 7% preferred stock and 9% preferred
stock by the pro forma weighted average common and common
equivalent shares outstanding during the periods.  Pro forma
weighted average common and common equivalent shares have been
computed as follows:
