ABOUT
Where we’re trusted
For more than 40 years, Gershman, Brickner & Bratton, Inc. (GBB) has served public agencies, municipalities, and private clients across the country and beyond to craft practical, customized, and sound solutions for complex solid waste management challenges.
About GBB
On August 11, 1980, three colleagues opened an office in Washington, DC—and went to work on a problem most of the world preferred not to look at.
Four decades later, GBB is still that firm. Still carrying its founders’ names, still working from the same conviction: provide innovative, responsible, sustainable, and economical solutions for the benefit of communities and the environment.
Our Creed
Quality. Value.
Ethics. Results.
That creed hasn’t changed since 1980, and it doesn’t flex by client or by contract. It’s the standard everything else at GBB gets measured against.
Our Mission
We help our clients solve solid waste management issues by providing innovative, responsible, sustainable, and economical strategies and solutions for the benefit of communities and the environment.
Our Vision
A world where discarded materials are used as resources, not wasted.
Leadership &
Associate experts
With extensive expertise and shared passion for innovative, sustainable solid waste management solutions, GBB’s leadership team has spent their careers treating solid waste as a resource, not a nuisance—work that not only conserves resources, but protects soil, air, water, and the people and communities who depend on all three.
