Abby McLennan, Tai Uhlmann, and Ingalisa Burns make up this team of seasoned trash experts, custom-crafting solid waste solutions since 2011.
In 2011, Abby McLennan and Coco Hess laid the foundation for Let’s Talk Trash. Tai and Ingalisa soon joined forces and they quickly became the community’s go-to experts for all things solid-waste. Their impact echoes through awards and recognition, solidifying their status as a reputable source for responsible and innovative waste management.
Since 2011, Let’s Talk Trash has been at the forefront of diverse initiatives—ranging from education and outreach to facility design, environmental cleanup, waste audits, and program development.
They don’t just talk trash, though… they roll up their sleeves, diving into the nitty-gritty of the entire waste cycle. Their hands-on approach is matched only by their down-to-earth style, perfectly attuned to resonate with rural and remote areas. Let’s Talk Trash isn’t just a name; it’s a commitment to practical expertise, community connection, and sustainable waste solutions.
