Reiss Hauling & Recycling has been a staple of the Coopersburg community for over 70 years, tracing its roots back to 1952. The company was founded by Edward W. Reiss, Sr., a World War II Navy veteran who started the business after working at the Bethlehem Steel foundry. Edward successfully owned and operated the hauling service for decades until his retirement, at which point the family legacy continued through his sons.

Today, the business—often referred to locally as Reiss Brothers—is managed by Tim Reiss, maintaining its status as a local, family-run alternative to large waste management corporations. Operating from their office on Passer Road, they have built a reputation based on "old-school" reliability and a personal touch that many residents feel is missing from national competitors. Despite the evolving waste industry, the family has remained committed to serving Springfield Township and the surrounding areas, emphasizing customer-first flexibility and community-centric service.
