Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
BASIS OF PRESENTATION | BASIS OF PRESENTATION Casella Waste Systems, Inc. (“Parent”), and its subsidiaries (collectively, “we”, “us” or “our”), is a regional, vertically integrated solid waste services company. We provide resource management expertise and services to residential, commercial, municipal, institutional and industrial customers, primarily in the areas of solid waste collection and disposal, transfer, recycling and organics services. We provide integrated solid waste services in seven states: Vermont, New Hampshire, New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Maine and Pennsylvania, with our headquarters located in Rutland, Vermont. We manage our solid waste operations on a geographic basis through two regional operating segments, the Eastern and Western regions, each of which provides a full range of solid waste services. We manage our resource-renewal operations through the Resource Solutions operating segment, which leverages our core competencies in materials processing, industrial recycling, organics and resource management service offerings to deliver a comprehensive solution for our larger commercial, municipal, institutional and industrial customers that have more diverse waste and recycling needs. Legal, tax, information technology, human resources, certain finance and accounting and other administrative functions are included in our Corporate Entities segment. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, which include the accounts of the Parent and our wholly-owned subsidiaries, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Investments in entities in which we do not have a controlling financial interest are accounted for under either the equity method or the cost method of accounting, as appropriate. Our significant accounting policies are more fully discussed in Item 8, " Financial Statements and Supplementary Data " of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 ("fiscal year 2021"), which was filed with the SEC on February 18, 2022. Preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the accounting for and recognition and disclosure of assets, liabilities, equity, revenues and expenses. We must make these estimates and assumptions because certain information that we use is dependent on future events, cannot be calculated with a high degree of precision given the available data, or simply cannot be readily calculated. In the opinion of management, these consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, which include normal recurring and nonrecurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 may not be indicative of the results for any other interim period or the entire fiscal year. The consolidated financial statements presented herein should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2021. Subsequent Events We have evaluated subsequent events or transactions that have occurred after the consolidated balance sheet date of June 30, 2022 through the date of filing of the consolidated financial statements with the SEC on this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We have determined that there are no subsequent events that require disclosure in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. |

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract] | |
ACCOUNTING CHANGES | ACCOUNTING CHANGES A table providing a brief description of recent Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs") to the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) that are pending adoption and deemed to have a possible material impact on our consolidated financial statements based on current account balances and activity follows: Standard Description Effect on the Financial Statements or Other Accounting standards issued pending adoption ASU No. 2020-04: Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), as amended through January 2021 Provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in applying GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships that reference London Inter-Bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another reference rate expected to be discontinued, subject to meeting certain criteria. We currently have interest rate derivative agreements with hedging relationships that reference LIBOR. This guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. We are currently assessing the provisions of this guidance, and reviewing and updating our existing contracts, as applicable, for transition or fallback language that specifies how a replacement rate for LIBOR will be identified. We are also no longer using LIBOR as a reference rate for any new contracts. We do not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. This guidance will be in effect from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. See Note 7, Debt for further disclosure over our interest rate derivative agreements and debt instruments that reference LIBOR. ASU No. 2021-08: Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (Topic 805) Requires entities to apply ASC 606 to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in a business combination. This guidance improves comparability after the business combination by providing consistent recognition and measurement guidance for revenue contracts with customers acquired in a business combination and revenue contracts with customers not acquired in a business combination. We have made in the past, and we may make in the future, acquisitions to densify existing operations, expand service areas, and grow services for our customers, and these acquisitions may include contract assets or contract liabilities. We do not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. This guidance is effective January 1, 2023 with early adoption permitted. |

Revenue from Contract with Customer [Abstract] | |
REVENUE RECOGNITION | REVENUE RECOGNITION Revenues associated with our solid waste operations are derived mainly from solid waste collection and disposal services, including landfill, transfer station and transportation services, landfill gas-to-energy services, and processing services. Revenues associated with our resource-renewal services are derived from processing and non-processing services. The following tables set forth revenues disaggregated by service line and timing of revenue recognition by operating segment for each of the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021: Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 Eastern Western Resource Solutions Total Revenues Collection $ 59,299 $ 77,962 $ — $ 137,261 Landfill 6,542 18,599 — 25,141 Transfer 17,292 11,982 — 29,274 Transportation 1,765 4,024 — 5,789 Landfill gas-to-energy 249 1,504 — 1,753 Processing 2,116 813 33,867 36,796 Non-processing — — 47,652 47,652 Total revenues $ 87,263 $ 114,884 $ 81,519 $ 283,666 Transferred at a point-in-time $ 117 $ 517 $ 18,813 $ 19,447 Transferred over time 87,146 114,367 62,706 264,219 Total revenues $ 87,263 $ 114,884 $ 81,519 $ 283,666 Three Months Ended June 30, 2021 Eastern Western Resource Solutions Total Revenues Collection $ 39,364 $ 67,963 $ — $ 107,327 Landfill 6,118 16,517 — 22,635 Transfer 13,475 9,976 — 23,451 Transportation 47 3,040 — 3,087 Landfill gas-to-energy 246 854 — 1,100 Processing 1,808 502 21,031 23,341 Non-processing — — 34,934 34,934 Total revenues $ 61,058 $ 98,852 $ 55,965 $ 215,875 Transferred at a point-in-time $ 38 $ 487 $ 14,944 $ 15,469 Transferred over time 61,020 98,365 41,021 200,406 Total revenues $ 61,058 $ 98,852 $ 55,965 $ 215,875 Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 Eastern Western Resource Solutions Total Revenues Collection $ 110,796 $ 145,997 $ — $ 256,793 Landfill 11,918 32,788 — 44,706 Transfer 28,905 19,825 — 48,730 Transportation 3,238 6,682 — 9,920 Landfill gas-to-energy 522 3,885 — 4,407 Processing 3,203 1,546 61,263 66,012 Non-processing — — 87,125 87,125 Total revenues $ 158,582 $ 210,723 $ 148,388 $ 517,693 Transferred at a point-in-time $ 236 $ 1,028 $ 33,900 $ 35,164 Transferred over time 158,346 209,695 114,488 482,529 Total revenues $ 158,582 $ 210,723 $ 148,388 $ 517,693 Six Months Ended June 30, 2021 Eastern Western Resource Solutions Total Revenues Collection $ 75,440 $ 129,356 $ — $ 204,796 Landfill 11,520 30,136 — 41,656 Transfer 22,899 17,123 — 40,022 Transportation 95 5,253 — 5,348 Landfill gas-to-energy 515 1,888 — 2,403 Processing 2,934 860 38,302 42,096 Non-processing — — 69,085 69,085 Total revenues $ 113,403 $ 184,616 $ 107,387 $ 405,406 Transferred at a point-in-time $ 82 $ 988 $ 25,036 $ 26,106 Transferred over time 113,321 183,628 82,351 379,300 Total revenues $ 113,403 $ 184,616 $ 107,387 $ 405,406 Payments to customers that are not in exchange for a distinct good or service are recorded as a reduction of revenues. Rebates to certain customers associated with payments for recycled or organic materials that are received and subsequently processed and sold to other third-parties amounted to $5,908 and $9,702 in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, and $2,532 and $4,100 in the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. Rebates are generally recorded as a reduction of revenues upon the sale of such materials, or upon receipt of the recycled materials at our facilities. We did not record any revenues in the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 or June 30, 2021 from performance obligations satisfied in previous periods. Contract receivables, which are included in Accounts receivable, net are recorded when billed or when related revenue is earned, if earlier, and represent claims against third-parties that will be settled in cash. Accounts receivable, net includes gross receivables from contracts of $111,601 and $89,232 as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Certain customers are billed in advance and, accordingly, recognition of the related revenues is deferred as a contract liability until the services are provided and control transferred to the customer. We recognized contract liabilities of $3,733 and $3,404 as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Due to the short term nature of advanced billings, substantially all of the deferred revenue recognized as a contract liability as of December 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was recognized as revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021, respectively, when the services were performed. |

Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract] | |
BUSINESS COMBINATIONS | BUSINESS COMBINATIONS In the six months ended June 30, 2022, we acquired the following businesses: a full service solid-waste collection, recycling and transportation business in our Resource Solutions operating segment; a closed waste-to-energy facility that is being decommissioned and rebuilt as a transfer station and four tuck-in solid waste collection businesses in our Western region; a portable toilets business in our Eastern region; and a scrap metal collection business whose assets are allocated between our Eastern region and Resource Solutions operating segments. In the six months ended June 30, 2021, we acquired two tuck-in solid waste collection businesses in our Western region, along with a septic and portable toilet business and a tuck-in solid waste collection business in our Eastern region. The operating results of these businesses are included in the accompanying unaudited consolidated statements of operations from each date of acquisition, and the purchase price has been allocated to the net assets acquired based on fair values at each date of acquisition, with the residual amounts recorded as goodwill. Purchase price allocations are based on information existing at the acquisition dates or upon closing the transactions, including contingent consideration. Acquired intangible assets other than goodwill that are subject to amortization include customer relationships, trade names and covenants not-to-compete. Such assets are amortized over a four-year to ten-year period from the date of acquisition. All amounts recorded to goodwill are expected to be deductible for tax purposes. A summary of the purchase price paid and the purchase price allocation for acquisitions follows: Six Months Ended 2022 2021 Purchase Price: Cash used in acquisitions, net of cash acquired $ 55,053 $ 4,378 Holdbacks 3,842 505 Total consideration 58,895 4,883 Allocated as follows: Current assets 7,584 13 Property, plant and equipment: Land 2,804 — Buildings and improvements 5,308 — Equipment 6,712 1,549 Operating lease right-of-use assets 405 — Intangible assets: Covenants not-to-compete 1,415 420 Customer relationships 9,725 1,226 Other non-current assets 40 — Current liabilities (3,577) (82) Operating lease liabilities, less current portion (282) — Fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed 30,134 3,126 Excess purchase price allocated to goodwill $ 28,761 $ 1,757 Certain purchase price allocations are preliminary and are based on information existing at the acquisition dates or upon closing the transaction.

ACCRUED FINAL CAPPING, CLOSURE AND POST CLOSURE | ACCRUED FINAL CAPPING, CLOSURE AND POST CLOSUREAccrued final capping, closure and post-closure costs include the current and non-current portion of costs associated with obligations for final capping, closure and post-closure of our landfills. We estimate our future final capping, closure and post-closure costs in order to determine the final capping, closure and post-closure expense per ton of waste placed into each landfill. The anticipated time frame for paying these costs varies based on the remaining useful life of each landfill as well as the duration of the post-closure monitoring period. A summary of the changes to accrued final capping, closure and post-closure liabilities follows: Six Months Ended 2022 2021 Beginning balance $ 86,914 $ 82,533 Obligations incurred 2,244 2,319 Revision in estimates (1) 1,443 — Accretion expense 3,799 3,676 Obligations settled (2) (2,027) (2,969) Ending balance $ 92,373 $ 85,559 (1) Relates to a change in estimates concerning anticipated capping costs at one of our landfills.

The Vermont Bonds 2022A-1, which are unsecured and guaranteed jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally by all of our significant wholly-owned subsidiaries, accrue interest at 5.00% per annum from June 1, 2022 through May 31, 2027, at which time they may be converted to a variable interest rate period or to a new term interest rate period. The Vermont Bonds 2022A-1 mature on June 1, 2052. As of June 30, 2022, we had $1,006 of remaining cash proceeds from the issuance of the Vermont Bonds 2022A-1 included in restricted cash and assets that is restricted to finance or reimburse certain noncurrent asset costs associated with capital projects in the State of Vermont. Credit Facility As of June 30, 2022, we are party to an amended and restated credit agreement ("Credit Agreement"), which provides for a $350,000 aggregate principal amount Term Loan Facility and a $300,000 Revolving Credit Facility, with a $75,000 sublimit for letters of credit. We have the right to request, at our discretion, an increase in the amount of loans under the Credit Facility by an aggregate amount of $125,000, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Facility has a 5-year term that matures in December 2026 and bears interest at a rate of LIBOR plus 1.375% per annum, which will be reduced to a rate of LIBOR plus as low as 1.125% upon us reaching a consolidated net leverage ratio of less than 2.25x. The Credit Agreement contains customary benchmark replacement provisions pursuant to which, upon certain triggering events, the LIBOR benchmark used to calculate the LIBOR rate will be replaced with a secured overnight financing rate, as adjusted, on the terms and conditions in the Credit Agreement. The Credit Facility is guaranteed jointly and severally, fully and unconditionally by all of our significant wholly-owned subsidiaries and secured by substantially all of our assets. As of June 30, 2022, further advances were available under the Revolving Credit Facility in the amount of $271,805. The available amount is net of outstanding irrevocable letters of credit totaling $28,195, and as of June 30, 2022 no amount had been drawn. Cash Flow Hedges Our strategy to reduce exposure to interest rate risk involves entering into interest rate derivative agreements to hedge against adverse movements in interest rates related to the variable rate portion of our long-term debt. We have designated these derivative instruments as highly effective cash flow hedges, and therefore the change in their fair value is recorded in stockholders’ equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax and included in interest expense at the same time as interest expense is affected by the hedged transactions. Differences paid or received over the life of the agreements are recorded as additions to or reductions of interest expense on the underlying debt and included in cash flows from operating activities. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, our active interest rate derivative agreements had total notional amounts of $190,000 and $195,000, respectively. According to the terms of the agreements, we receive interest based on the 1-month LIBOR index, in some instances restricted by a 0.0% floor, and pay interest at a weighted average rate of approximately 2.20%. The agreements mature between May 2023 and June 2027. As of December 31, 2021, we had forward starting interest rate derivative agreements with a total notional amount of $85,000 outstanding. As of June 30, 2022, we have a forward starting interest rate derivative agreement with a total notional amount of $20,000 after considering any forward starting interest rate derivative agreements that became effective in the current period. According to the terms of this agreement, we will receive interest based on the 1-month LIBOR index, restricted by a 0.0% floor, and will pay interest at a rate of 1.29%. The agreement matures in May 2028. A summary of the effect of cash flow hedges related to derivative instruments on the consolidated balance sheet follows: Fair Value Balance Sheet Location June 30, December 31, Interest rate swaps Other current assets $ 1,454 $ — Interest rate swaps Other non-current assets 5,508 424 $ 6,962 $ 424 Interest rate swaps Other accrued liabilities $ — $ 3,796 Interest rate swaps Other long-term liabilities — 1,380 $ — $ 5,176 Interest rate swaps Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax $ 6,962 $ (4,935) Interest rate swaps - tax effect Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax (2,942) (168) $ 4,020 $ (5,103) A summary of the amount of expense on cash flow hedging relationships related to interest rate swaps reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax into earnings follows: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended Statement of Operations Location 2022 2021 2022 2021 Interest expense $ 994 $ 1,202 $ 2,122 $ 2,347 |

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract] | |
COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES | COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES Legal Proceedings In the ordinary course of our business and as a result of the extensive governmental regulation of the solid waste industry, we are subject to various judicial and administrative proceedings involving state and local agencies. In these proceedings, an agency may seek to impose fines or to revoke or deny renewal of an operating permit held by us. From time to time, we may also be subject to actions brought by special interest or other groups, adjacent landowners or residents in connection with the permitting and licensing of landfills and transfer stations, or allegations of environmental damage or violations of the permits and licenses pursuant to which we operate. In addition, we may be named defendants in various claims and suits pending for alleged damages to persons and property, alleged violations of certain laws and alleged liabilities arising out of matters occurring during the ordinary operation of a waste management business. The plaintiffs in some actions seek unspecified damages or injunctive relief, or both. These actions fall within various procedural stages at any point in time, and some are covered in part by insurance. In accordance with FASB ASC 450 - Contingencies, we accrue for legal proceedings, inclusive of legal costs, when losses become probable and reasonably estimable. We have recorded an aggregate accrual of $1,291 relating to our outstanding legal proceedings as of June 30, 2022. As of the end of each applicable reporting period, we review each of our legal proceedings to determine whether it is probable, reasonably possible or remote that a liability has been incurred and, if it is at least reasonably possible, whether a range of loss can be reasonably estimated under the provisions of FASB ASC 450-20. In instances where we determine that a loss is probable and we can reasonably estimate a range of loss we may incur with respect to such a matter, we record an accrual for the amount within the range that constitutes our best estimate of the possible loss. If we are able to reasonably estimate a range, but no amount within the range appears to be a better estimate than any other, we record an accrual in the amount that is the low end of such range. When a loss is reasonably possible, but not probable, we will not record an accrual, but we will disclose our estimate of the possible range of loss where such estimate can be made in accordance with FASB ASC 450-20. We disclose outstanding matters that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. North Country Environmental Services Expansion Permit On October 9, 2020, our subsidiary, North Country Environmental Services, Inc. ("NCES"), received a Type I-A Permit Modification (the "Permit") for Expansion in the Stage VI area of the NCES landfill located in Bethlehem, New Hampshire. On November 9, 2020, the Conservation Law Foundation ("CLF") filed an appeal of the Permit to the New Hampshire Waste Management Council (the “Council”) on the grounds it failed to meet the public benefit criteria. On January 19, 2021, CLF filed a Complaint for Injunctive Relief with the Grafton Superior Court to enjoin NCES from accepting waste pursuant to the new Permit until such a time as CLF has exhausted its appeal rights. A hearing on the Complaint for Injunctive Relief was held on March 10, 2021; the Grafton Superior Court denied the motion on May 14, 2021. CLF did not appeal this decision. The Council denied NCES’s Motion to Dismiss CLF’s appeal for lack of standing by Order dated March 17, 2021. NCES filed a Motion to Reconsider on March 26, 2021, which was denied by the Council on May 11, 2021. A prehearing conference was held and a schedule for the case was established on June 8, 2021. NCES filed a Motion to Dismiss on the merits of the appeal on June 30, 2021. On July 16, 2021, CLF filed its objection to the Motion to Dismiss, and NCES filed its reply on July 26, 2021. The Council issued an Order on September 3, 2021 granting NCES’s Motion to Dismiss, in part. CLF filed a Motion for Reconsideration on September 23, 2021, and NCES filed its objection on September 28, 2021 and CLF filed a reply on September 30, 2021. CLF’s Motion for Reconsideration was granted on November 19, 2021, and its dismissed claims reinstated. On January 14, 2022, NCES filed a Motion in Limine seeking to exclude from evidence four potential evidentiary items on the basis that those items were either not directly related, or were not included in CLF’s Notice of Appeal. On January 21, 2022, CLF filed an objection to NCES’s motion, and NCES filed a reply on January 26, 2022. On January 31, 2022, the Council issued an Order granting NCES’s Motion in Limine with respect to three of the four items it sought to exclude from evidence, and denying its motion with respect to the remaining item. On February 18 and February 22, 2022, a quorum of the Council and Hearing Officer held a hearing on the appeal. Council deliberations occurred and were concluded on February 22, 2022,with the Council ruling in favor of NCES on all motions concerning questions of fact, and indicating that a written decision incorporating the Hearing Officer’s decision as to questions of law would follow. On May 11, 2022, an Order was issued denying all of CLF’s arguments on appeal, with the exception of one; the Hearing Officer held that based on his interpretation of the relevant statute, the public benefit determination made by the New Hampshire Department of Environmental Services (“DES”), in issuing the Permit to NCES, was unlawful, and remanded the Permit to the DES with regard to this determination. DES filed a Motion for Reconsideration with the Council on May 31, 2022 (the “DES Reconsideration Motion”) and NCES filed a Motion for Rehearing on June 10, 2022 (the “NCES Rehearing Motion”). The Hearing Officer suspended his May 11, 2022 decision by Order dated June 20, 2022, pending consideration of the DES Reconsideration Motion and NCES Rehearing Motion. On June 24, 2022, CLF filed an Objection and Motion to Strike with respect to the NCES Rehearing Motion as well as an Objection to the DES Reconsideration Motion, and DES filed a Limited Objection to the NCES Rehearing Motion, each to which NCES submitted a Reply on July 6, 2022. On July 18, 2022, CLF filed a Reply in Support of its Motion to Strike and Limited Surreply in Support of Objection to the NCES Motion for Rehearing. On July 21, 2022, NCES filed an Assented to Motion for Leave to File Limited Surreply to CLF’s Motion to Strike together with a Limited Surreply to CLF’s Motion to Strike. The outcome remains pending. NCES will continue to vigorously defend against this litigation. Environmental Remediation Liabilities We are subject to liability for environmental damage, including personal injury and property damage, that our solid waste, recycling and power generation facilities may cause to neighboring property owners, particularly as a result of the contamination of drinking water sources or soil, possibly including damage resulting from conditions that existed before we acquired the facilities. We may also be subject to liability for similar claims arising from off-site environmental contamination caused by pollutants or hazardous substances if we or our predecessors arrange or arranged to transport, treat or dispose of those materials. We accrue for costs associated with environmental remediation obligations when such costs become both probable and reasonably estimable. Determining the method and ultimate cost of remediation requires that a number of assumptions be made. There can sometimes be a range of reasonable estimates of the costs associated with remediation of a site. In these cases, we use the amount within the range that constitutes our best estimate. In the early stages of the remediation process, particular components of the overall liability may not be reasonably estimable; in this instance we use the components of the liability that can be reasonably estimated as a surrogate for the liability. It is reasonably possible that we will need to adjust the liabilities recorded for remediation to reflect the effects of new or additional information, to the extent such information impacts the costs, timing or duration of the required actions. Future changes in our estimates of the cost, timing or duration of the required actions could have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. We disclose outstanding environmental remediation matters that remain unsettled or are settled in the reporting period that we believe could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. We inflate the estimated costs in current dollars to the expected time of payment and discount the total cost to present value using a risk-free interest rate. The weighted average risk-free interest rate associated with our environmental remediation liabilities as of June 30, 2022 ranges between 1.5% and 2.6%. A summary of the changes to the aggregate environmental remediation liabilities for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 follows: Six Months Ended 2022 2021 Beginning balance $ 5,887 $ 5,200 Accretion expense 54 56 Obligations settled (1) (72) (281) Ending balance 5,869 4,975 Less: current portion 280 375 Long-term portion $ 5,589 $ 4,600 (1) May include amounts paid and amounts that are being processed through accounts payable as a part of our disbursement cycle. |

Equity [Abstract] | |
STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY | STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY Stock Based Compensation Shares Available For Issuance In the fiscal year ended December 31, 2016, we adopted the 2016 Incentive Plan (“2016 Plan”). Under the 2016 Plan, we may grant awards up to an aggregate amount of shares equal to the sum of: (i) 2,250 shares of Class A common stock (subject to adjustment in the event of stock splits and other similar events), plus (ii) such additional number of shares of Class A common stock (up to 2,723 shares) as is equal to the sum of the number of shares of Class A common stock that remained available for grant under the 2006 Stock Incentive Plan (“2006 Plan”) immediately prior to the expiration of the 2006 Plan and the number of shares of Class A common stock subject to awards granted under the 2006 Plan that expire, terminate or are otherwise surrendered, canceled, forfeited or repurchased by us. As of June 30, 2022, there were 868 Class A common stock equivalents available for future grant under the 2016 Plan. Stock Options Stock options are granted at a price equal to the prevailing fair value of our Class A common stock at the date of grant. Generally, stock options granted have a term not to exceed ten years and vest over a one-year to four-year period from the date of grant. The fair value of each stock option granted is estimated using a Black-Scholes option-pricing model, which requires extensive use of accounting judgment and financial estimation, including estimates of the expected term stock option holders will retain their vested stock options before exercising them and the estimated volatility of our Class A common stock price over the expected term. A summary of stock option activity follows: Stock Options Weighted Average Exercise Price Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value Outstanding, December 31, 2021 77 $ 15.68 Granted — $ — Exercised (23) $ 8.56 Forfeited — $ — Outstanding, June 30, 2022 54 $ 18.62 4.3 $ 2,946 Exercisable, June 30, 2022 46 $ 9.49 3.5 $ 2,913 Stock-based compensation expense related to stock options was $17 and $33 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. We did not record any stock-based compensation expense for stock options during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2022, we had $139 of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to outstanding stock options to be recognized over a weighted average period of 2.1 years. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the aggregate intrinsic value of stock options exercised was $1,156 and $1,467, respectively. Other Stock Awards Restricted stock awards, restricted stock units and performance stock units, with the exception of market-based performance stock units, are granted at a price equal to the fair value of our Class A common stock at the date of grant. The fair value of each market-based performance stock unit is estimated using a Monte Carlo pricing model, which requires extensive use of accounting judgment and financial estimation, including the estimated share price appreciation plus, if applicable, the value of dividends of our Class A common stock as compared to the Russell 2000 Index over the requisite service period. Generally, restricted stock awards granted to non-employee directors vest incrementally over a three year period beginning on the first anniversary of the date of grant. Restricted stock units granted to non-employee directors vest in full on the first anniversary of the grant date. Restricted stock units granted to employees vest incrementally over an identified service period beginning on the grant date based on continued employment. Performance stock units granted to employees, including market-based performance stock units, vest at a future date following the grant date and are based on the attainment of performance targets and market achievements, as applicable. A summary of restricted stock, restricted stock unit and performance stock unit activity follows: Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, and Performance Stock Units (1) Weighted Weighted Average Remaining Contractual Term (years) Aggregate Intrinsic Value Outstanding, December 31, 2021 249 $ 55.40 Granted 82 $ 94.31 Class A Common Stock Vested (63) $ 49.00 Forfeited (34) $ 67.73 Outstanding, June 30, 2022 234 $ 68.86 1.9 $ 17,031 Unvested, June 30, 2022 418 $ 68.97 1.6 $ 30,407 (1) Market-based performance stock unit grants are included at the 100% attainment level. Attainment of the maximum performance targets and market achievements would result in the issuance of an additional 184 shares of Class A common stock currently included in unvested. Stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance stock units was $828 and $2,979 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, as compared to $3,044 and $5,928 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, the total fair value of other stock awards vested was $814 and $5,359, respectively. As of June 30, 2022, total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to outstanding restricted stock was $58, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.5 years. As of June 30, 2022, total unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to outstanding restricted stock units was $5,543, which will be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.9 years. As of June 30, 2022, total expected unrecognized stock-based compensation expense related to outstanding performance stock units was $6,882 to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.8 years. We also recorded $93 and $166 of stock-based compensation expense related to our Amended and Restated 1997 Employee Stock Purchase Plan during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively, as compared to $72 and $128 during the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
EARNINGS PER SHARE | EARNINGS PER SHAREBasic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is calculated based on the combined weighted average number of common shares and potentially dilutive shares, which include the assumed exercise of employee stock options, unvested restricted stock awards, unvested restricted stock units and unvested performance stock units, including market-based performance units based on the expected achievement of performance targets. In computing diluted earnings per share, we utilize the treasury stock method. A summary of the numerator and denominators used in the computation of earnings per share follows: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended 2022 2021 2022 2021 Numerator: Net income $ 17,796 $ 11,783 $ 21,986 $ 16,094 Denominators: Number of shares outstanding, end of period: Class A common stock 50,690 50,398 50,690 50,398 Class B common stock 988 988 988 988 Unvested restricted stock (2) (2) (2) (2) Effect of weighted average shares outstanding (34) (18) (109) (111) Basic weighted average common shares outstanding 51,642 51,366 51,567 51,273 Impact of potentially dilutive securities: Dilutive effect of stock options and other stock awards 139 180 153 193 Diluted weighted average common shares outstanding 51,781 51,546 51,720 51,466 Anti-dilutive potentially issuable shares 70 — 70 48 |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS | FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS We use a three-tier fair value hierarchy to classify and disclose all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as well as assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, in periods subsequent to their initial measurement. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2, defined as inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data. We use valuation techniques that maximize the use of market prices and observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. In measuring the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities, we rely on market data or assumptions that we believe market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability. Assets and Liabilities Accounted for at Fair Value Our financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, restricted investment securities held in trust on deposit with various banks as collateral for our obligations relative to our landfill final capping, closure and post-closure costs, interest rate derivatives, contingent consideration related to acquisitions, trade payables and debt. The carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts receivable and trade payables approximate their respective fair values due to their short-term nature. The fair value of restricted investment securities held in trust, which are valued using quoted market prices, are included as restricted assets in the Level 1 tier below. The fair value of the interest rate derivatives included in the Level 2 tier below is calculated using discounted cash flow valuation methodologies based upon the one-month LIBOR yield curves that are observable at commonly quoted intervals for the full term of the swaps. We recognize all derivatives accounted for on the balance sheet at fair value. Recurring Fair Value Measurements Summaries of our financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis follow: Fair Value Measurement at June 30, 2022 Using: Quoted Prices in Significant Other Significant Assets: Restricted investment securities - landfill closure $ 1,799 $ — $ — Interest rate swaps — 6,962 — $ 1,799 $ 6,962 $ — Fair Value Measurement at December 31, 2021 Using: Quoted Prices in Significant Other Significant Assets: Restricted investment securities - landfill closure $ 2,122 $ — $ — Interest rate swaps — 424 — $ 2,122 $ 424 $ — Liabilities: Interest rate swaps $ — $ 5,176 $ — Fair Value of Debt As of June 30, 2022, the fair value of our fixed rate debt, including our FAME Bonds 2005R-3, FAME Bonds 2015R-1, FAME Bonds 2015R-2, Vermont Bonds 2013, Vermont Bonds 2022A-1, New York Bonds 2014R-1, New York Bonds 2014R-2, New York Bonds 2020 and New Hampshire Bonds (collectively, the "Industrial Revenue Bonds") was approximately $189,558 and the carrying value was $197,000. The fair value of the Industrial Revenue Bonds is considered to be Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy as the fair value is determined using market approach pricing provided by a third-party that utilizes pricing models and pricing systems, mathematical tools and judgment to determine the evaluated price for the security based on the market information of each of the bonds or securities with similar characteristics. As of June 30, 2022, the carrying value of our Term Loan Facility was $350,000 and the carrying value of our Revolving Credit Facility was $0. Their fair values are based on current borrowing rates for similar types of borrowing arrangements, or Level 2 inputs, and approximate their carrying values. |

Segment Reporting [Abstract] | |
SEGMENT REPORTING | SEGMENT REPORTING We report selected information about our reportable operating segments in a manner consistent with that used for internal management reporting. We classify our solid waste operations on a geographic basis through regional operating segments, our Western and Eastern regions. Revenues associated with our solid waste operations are derived mainly from solid waste collection, transfer, transportation and disposal, landfill gas-to-energy, processing, and recycling services in the northeastern United States. Our Resource Solutions operating segment leverages our core competencies in materials processing, industrial recycling, organics and resource management service offerings to deliver a comprehensive solution for our larger commercial, municipal, institutional and industrial customers that have more diverse waste and recycling needs. Revenues associated with our Resource Solutions operations are derived from two lines-of-service: processing and non-processing. Revenues from processing services are derived from municipalities and customers in the form of processing fees, tipping fees, commodity sales, and organic material sales. Revenues from non-processing services are derived from brokerage services and overall resource management services providing a wide range of environmental services and resource management solutions to large and complex organizations, as well as traditional collection, disposal and recycling services provided to large account multi-site customers. Legal, tax, information technology, human resources, certain finance and accounting and other administrative functions are included in our Corporate Entities segment, which is not a reportable operating segment. Corporate Entities results reflect those costs not allocated to our reportable operating segments.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract] | |
Basis of Accounting | Casella Waste Systems, Inc. (“Parent”), and its subsidiaries (collectively, “we”, “us” or “our”), is a regional, vertically integrated solid waste services company. We provide resource management expertise and services to residential, commercial, municipal, institutional and industrial customers, primarily in the areas of solid waste collection and disposal, transfer, recycling and organics services. We provide integrated solid waste services in seven states: Vermont, New Hampshire, New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Maine and Pennsylvania, with our headquarters located in Rutland, Vermont. We manage our solid waste operations on a geographic basis through two regional operating segments, the Eastern and Western regions, each of which provides a full range of solid waste services. We manage our resource-renewal operations through the Resource Solutions operating segment, which leverages our core competencies in materials processing, industrial recycling, organics and resource management service offerings to deliver a comprehensive solution for our larger commercial, municipal, institutional and industrial customers that have more diverse waste and recycling needs. Legal, tax, information technology, human resources, certain finance and accounting and other administrative functions are included in our Corporate Entities segment. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements, which include the accounts of the Parent and our wholly-owned subsidiaries, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). All significant intercompany accounts and transactions are eliminated in consolidation. Investments in entities in which we do not have a controlling financial interest are accounted for under either the equity method or the cost method of accounting, as appropriate. Our significant accounting policies are more fully discussed in Item 8, " Financial Statements and Supplementary Data " of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 ("fiscal year 2021"), which was filed with the SEC on February 18, 2022. |
Use of Estimates | Preparation of our consolidated financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions. These estimates and assumptions affect the accounting for and recognition and disclosure of assets, liabilities, equity, revenues and expenses. We must make these estimates and assumptions because certain information that we use is dependent on future events, cannot be calculated with a high degree of precision given the available data, or simply cannot be readily calculated. In the opinion of management, these consolidated financial statements include all adjustments, which include normal recurring and nonrecurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. The results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 may not be indicative of the results for any other interim period or the entire fiscal year. |
Subsequent Events | We have evaluated subsequent events or transactions that have occurred after the consolidated balance sheet date of June 30, 2022 through the date of filing of the consolidated financial statements with the SEC on this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We have determined that there are no subsequent events that require disclosure in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. |
Accounting Standards Adopted and Pending Adoption | A table providing a brief description of recent Accounting Standards Updates ("ASUs") to the Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) that are pending adoption and deemed to have a possible material impact on our consolidated financial statements based on current account balances and activity follows: Standard Description Effect on the Financial Statements or Other Accounting standards issued pending adoption ASU No. 2020-04: Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848), as amended through January 2021 Provides temporary optional guidance to ease the potential burden in applying GAAP to contract modifications and hedging relationships that reference London Inter-Bank Offered Rate ("LIBOR") or another reference rate expected to be discontinued, subject to meeting certain criteria. We currently have interest rate derivative agreements with hedging relationships that reference LIBOR. This guidance provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. We are currently assessing the provisions of this guidance, and reviewing and updating our existing contracts, as applicable, for transition or fallback language that specifies how a replacement rate for LIBOR will be identified. We are also no longer using LIBOR as a reference rate for any new contracts. We do not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. This guidance will be in effect from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. See Note 7, Debt for further disclosure over our interest rate derivative agreements and debt instruments that reference LIBOR. ASU No. 2021-08: Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers (Topic 805) Requires entities to apply ASC 606 to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities in a business combination. This guidance improves comparability after the business combination by providing consistent recognition and measurement guidance for revenue contracts with customers acquired in a business combination and revenue contracts with customers not acquired in a business combination. We have made in the past, and we may make in the future, acquisitions to densify existing operations, expand service areas, and grow services for our customers, and these acquisitions may include contract assets or contract liabilities. We do not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. This guidance is effective January 1, 2023 with early adoption permitted. |
Accrued Final Capping, Closure and Post Closure | Accrued final capping, closure and post-closure costs include the current and non-current portion of costs associated with obligations for final capping, closure and post-closure of our landfills. We estimate our future final capping, closure and post-closure costs in order to determine the final capping, closure and post-closure expense per ton of waste placed into each landfill. The anticipated time frame for paying these costs varies based on the remaining useful life of each landfill as well as the duration of the post-closure monitoring period. |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | We use a three-tier fair value hierarchy to classify and disclose all assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as well as assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis, in periods subsequent to their initial measurement. These tiers include: Level 1, defined as quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2, defined as inputs other than Level 1 that are observable, either directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; and Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data. We use valuation techniques that maximize the use of market prices and observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. In measuring the fair value of our financial assets and liabilities, we rely on market data or assumptions that we believe market participants would use in pricing an asset or a liability.

This guidance improves comparability after the business combination by providing consistent recognition and measurement guidance for revenue contracts with customers acquired in a business combination and revenue contracts with customers not acquired in a business combination. We have made in the past, and we may make in the future, acquisitions to densify existing operations, expand service areas, and grow services for our customers, and these acquisitions may include contract assets or contract liabilities. We do not expect that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. This guidance is effective January 1, 2023 with early adoption permitted. |
