Royal Carting Service Co.
A Reliable & Responsible Waste Management Company
Three Generations Dedicated to Service & Community
As a young man determined to make his way and support a family, Emil Panichi launched Royal Carting as a part-time second job with a single truck. A living example of learning the business “hands-on,” Emil collected the garbage cans house-by-house while his employee drove the truck on their single Dutchess County route.
Since that humble beginning, Emil has committed his time and energy to seeing Royal Carting grow and thrive across the Hudson Valley. Through the years, the business has expanded from residential garbage collection to include drop-off service and commercial waste removal. Royal remains a pioneer in recycling, having designed its first recycling program in 1977. Today, more than half of Royal Carting’s vehicles are zero-emission.
Royal Carting, with sister company Welsh Sanitation, employs nearly 200 Hudson Valley residents and operates a fleet of specialized vehicles, along with its own single-stream recycling dropoff center and two NYS DEC permitted transfer stations.
Having entered the business as teenagers working on weekends and school breaks, daughters Elisa and Evelyn are proud to carry on the Panichi family business tradition and community service mission that are the heart of Royal Carting.
