El Sobrante Landfill is a Class 3 regional disposal facility permitted to accept up to 10,000 tons per day, seven days per week. It employs approximately 40 full-time employees. Landfill operations are overseen by the California Integrated Waste Management Board, and the Riverside County Department of Environmental Health.
This month, Guadalupe “Lupe” celebrated 21 years with Waste Management. He started working at El Sobrante as a landscape contractor and soon after was offered a job on site as a laborer. He took the job because of the growth opportunities and soon after he was trained to operate the heavy equipment. Lupe is a heavy equipment operator; his vast experience and skills are an asset to the day-to-day operations at El Sobrante Landfill.

“Working at El Sobrante Landfill was my schooling in life and provided me with the opportunity to give my family a nice life.” said Lupe. “I am very happy doing what I do for Waste Management and enjoy my job to the fullest.”

Lupe and his wife of 26 years, Raquel, have lived in Corona for 24 years and have six children- raging from 16 to 25 years and two grandsons. In the past few years, he has focused on getting his dream vacation home built --which he helped design. The home is located in the historic town of Guanajuato, Mexico where he vacations regularly.

We congratulate Lupe for his 21 years with El Sobrante- his work ethic and experience is invaluable to our team.
