PROXY STATEMENT

This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation by
the Board of Directors of USA Waste Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("USA
Waste" or the "Company"), of proxies to be voted at its 1998 Annual Meeting of
Stockholders to be held at the Four Seasons Hotel, 1300 Lamar, Houston, Texas
77010, on May 19, 1998, at 10:00 a.m., Houston, Texas time, and at any
adjournment(s) thereof (such meeting or adjournment(s) thereof are referred to
as the "Meeting"). This Proxy Statement and the accompanying materials will be
mailed on or about April 8, 1998, to holders of record of common stock, par
value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock"), of the Company as of the record date.

The record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of, and to
vote at, the Meeting is the close of business on March 31, 1998. On that date,
the Company had outstanding and entitled to vote 219,339,755 shares of Common
Stock. Holders of record of Common Stock on the record date will be entitled to
one vote for each share held on all matters properly brought before the Meeting.

A majority of the votes entitled to be cast on matters to be considered at
the Meeting constitutes a quorum. If a share is represented for any purpose at
the Meeting, it is deemed to be present for all other matters. Abstentions and
shares held of record by a broker or its nominee ("Broker Shares") that are
voted on any matter are included in determining the number of votes present.
Broker Shares that are not voted on any matter will not be included in
determining whether a quorum is present.

Other than the election of directors, which requires a plurality of the
votes cast, each matter to be submitted to stockholders requires the affirmative
vote of a majority of the votes cast at the Meeting. In all cases, shares with
respect to which authority is withheld, abstentions, and Broker Shares that are
not voted will not be included in determining the number of votes cast.

All costs of soliciting proxies for the Meeting will be borne by the
Company. In addition to use of the mails, proxies may be solicited by personal
interview, telephone and facsimile, and by banks, brokerage houses, and other
institutions. Nominees or fiduciaries will be requested to forward the
solicitation for the execution of proxies. The Company will, upon request,
reimburse banks, brokerage houses, other institutions, nominees, and fiduciaries
for their reasonable expenses in forwarding solicitation materials to beneficial
owners.

Any stockholder returning the accompanying proxy may revoke such proxy at
any time prior to its exercise by (a) giving written notice to the Company of
such revocation, (b) voting in person at the Meeting, or (c) executing and
delivering to the Company a later-dated proxy. Written revocations and
later-dated proxies should be sent to the Secretary of USA Waste Services, Inc.,
1001 Fannin Street, Suite 4000, Houston, Texas 77002.

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

NOMINEES FOR ELECTION AS DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors of the Company is divided into three classes, each
consisting of four members. Directors are elected for a term of three years. At
the Meeting, the term of office of the Class III directors will expire, and the
four directors in that class will be nominated to serve until USA Waste's annual
meeting in 2001 and until their respective successors are elected. The terms of
office of the Class I and Class II directors will expire at USA Waste's annual
meetings in 1999 and 2000, respectively.

USA Waste's Board of Directors intends to cause the nomination of Richard
D. Kinder, Larry J. Martin, Rodney R. Proto and Alexander W. Rangos for election
as Class III directors. Unless a stockholder requests that voting of his proxy
be withheld for any one or more of the nominees for directors by so directing on
the proxy card, the shares represented by the proxy will be voted FOR election
of the four nominees described below. If any nominee becomes unavailable for any
reason, then the shares represented by proxy will be voted FOR the remainder of
the listed nominees and FOR such other nominees as may be designated by the
Board of Directors of USA Waste as replacements for those who become
unavailable.

On March 10, 1998, USA Waste entered into a definitive Agreement and Plan
of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") with Waste Management, Inc. ("WMI"), pursuant
to which WMI will become a wholly-owned subsidiary of USA Waste (the "Merger").
As part of the Merger, the USA Waste Board of Directors will be increased to 14
members, seven of whom will be designated by each of WMI's Board of Directors
and USA Waste's Board of Directors. In furtherance thereof, each of the
Company's directors, with the exception of Messrs. Drury and Proto, have
submitted their resignations as directors to be effective as of the day
immediately preceding the date of the Merger. There can be no assurance that the
Merger will occur, in which case the resignations will have no effect, and the
directors then in office will continue through their terms.

The following sets forth as of March 1, 1998 certain information concerning
each of the nominees for election to the Board of Directors and each director
who will continue in office.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT

This report explains USA Waste's executive compensation program for the
year ended December 31, 1997. The Compensation Committee, which consists
entirely of non-employee directors, determines the compensation of senior
executives and officers.

Compensation Philosophy. USA Waste's executive compensation program is a
critical part of the effective management of its key executives. The program
rewards senior management for building long-term stockholder value. It is
designed to:

- Establish a comparative framework of companies for pay/performance
analysis;

- Maintain a strong relationship between performance and rewards;

- Communicate the link between pay and performance; and

- Balance all compensation elements to create a total pay program based on
specific performance goals.

Executive Compensation Program. USA Waste's performance-based compensation
plans have been designed so as to qualify compensation paid under those plans to
the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Operating Officer for deductibility
under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"). From
time to time, however, the Compensation Committee may authorize the payment of
nondeductible compensation if it determines that such action would be in the
best interests of USA Waste's stockholders. For 1997, the Compensation Committee
determined that it was appropriate to pay Mr. Drury total compensation above the
limit set by Section 162(m) in order to achieve the underlying objectives of the
compensation program described in this Report.

In addition to base salary, USA Waste's executive compensation program in
1997 included incentive compensation in the form of annual bonuses (short-term
incentives) and grants of stock options, exercisable over ten years (long-term
incentives). The total amount of compensation paid to executives was determined
with reference to a peer group of Fortune 500 companies, which included USA
Waste's two principal domestic competitors. The Compensation Committee believes
that the various compensation programs within the peer group fairly represent
the types and levels of compensation USA Waste must be prepared to provide in
order to attract and retain qualified executives.

Base Salary. The Compensation Committee establishes base salaries for
executive officers annually in relation to base salaries paid within the peer
group. Base salaries may vary based on such factors as responsibility, current
performance and tenure.

Annual Bonus. In general, annual bonuses are based on corporate performance
in relation to one of the following approved goals: Company revenues, earnings
per share of Common Stock, pretax income, cash flow from operations, total cash
flow, return on equity, return on capital, return on assets, net operating
profits after

6
9

taxes, economic value added, total stockholder return, strategic growth or
return on sales, or any additional performance objectives which are measured
solely in terms of the attainment of quantitative targets related to USA Waste's
business, or any combination thereof.

The Compensation Committee may adjust the amount of any bonus based on (i)
individual performance, (ii) any of the above goals or (iii) other measures of
corporate performance, if in the opinion of the Compensation Committee, the
adjustment would be in the best interests of the stockholders.

Stock Options. The Company may grant stock options and other stock-related
incentives under the stockholder-approved USA Waste Services, Inc. 1993 Stock
Incentive Plan, as amended and restated (the "1993 Stock Incentive Plan"). The
1993 Stock Incentive Plan is intended to provide long-term incentives, the
ultimate value of which is determined by increases in the price of USA Waste
Common Stock.

No stock option can be granted at an exercise price of less than 100% of
fair market value on the day the option is granted. Each option must be
exercised within ten years after the date of grant, unless earlier terminated in
connection with termination of employment, and is exercisable (i) on and after
the first anniversary of the grant, to the extent of not more than 20% of the
number of shares covered by the option; (ii) on and after the second anniversary
of the grant, to the extent of not more than 40% thereof; (iii) on and after the
third anniversary of the grant, to the extent of not more than 60% thereof; and
(iv) not more than 80% on the fourth anniversary. The shares are fully vested at
the fifth anniversary.

Stock options were granted in 1997 to approximately 500 officers and
executives in amounts which were, in the judgment of the Compensation Committee,
directly related to the level of responsibility of the grantees as compared with
their peer group counterparts.

Chief Executive Officer Compensation. Under Mr. Drury's leadership in 1997,
USA Waste achieved increases in stockholder value, achieving outstanding record
results by every financial measure.

Operating revenues increased by 58%, from $1.6 billion in 1996, to $2.6
billion in 1997. Net income increased 81% to $358.4 million, from $197.5 million
in the prior year. Diluted earnings per share rose 51% to $1.62, compared to
$1.07 in 1996. These results reflect 40% for income taxes and exclude merger,
unusual and extraordinary pre-tax charges of $144.6 million in 1997 and $190.4
million in 1996, which reduced diluted earnings per share by $0.39 in 1997 and
$0.70 in 1996.

In addition, USA Waste has consistently managed its financial assets with
two objectives: (i) to provide ready access to capital for immediate growth
opportunities and (ii) to garner strength for future growth. In 1997, both
objectives were achieved. The Company raised $910 million from the sale of
Common Stock and convertible subordinated notes, representing one of the largest
equity and equity-linked financing transactions ever completed in the solid
waste industry. The Company also sold $1.1 billion of senior notes in two
separate issues, using the net proceeds to replace shorter-term debt at variable
rates with fixed-rate debt having longer maturities. The Company also increased
its bank credit facility twice during the year, from $1.2 billion to $1.6
billion, and subsequently to $2.0 billion.

Major strides toward increasing both the size and strength of the Company
were achieved in 1997 when the Company merged with United Waste Systems, Inc.
("United"). In addition to the United merger, the Company completed over 200
acquisitions in 1997 that provided access to many new markets and greatly
strengthened its position in existing markets throughout North America. Building
on its initial entry into Canada in 1996, two acquisitions were made during the
first quarter of 1997 that had a significant impact on the Company's presence
there: (i) the Canadian solid waste business of Allied Waste Industries,
consisting of 56 operations in major urban markets across six provinces and (ii)
the Canadian solid waste assets of WMI, adding 17 operations in four provinces.
Within one year of the Company's entry into the Canadian market, its subsidiary,
Canadian Waste, became the largest solid waste company in the country and now
has operations generating approximately $500 million in revenues.

By the end of 1997, the Company had completed acquisitions of
privately-held businesses that added approximately $725 million in annualized
revenues -- more than twice the level of 1996 acquisition activity.

In addition, the Company completed transactions with publicly traded companies
that added over $600 million in net annualized revenues.

In establishing each of the components of Mr. Drury's compensation, the
Compensation Committee relied in part on information developed with the
assistance of an executive compensation consulting firm. Based on such
information and an evaluation of his performance, the Compensation Committee
increased Mr. Drury's base salary to reflect increased salary levels among his
peer group counterparts.

In 1997, Mr. Drury received an annual bonus, as reported in the Summary
Compensation Table, based on USA Waste's performance with respect to earnings
per share.

The Compensation Committee also granted to Mr. Drury options to purchase
800,000 shares of USA Waste Common Stock, recognizing the extraordinary
performance of USA Waste in 1997.

Conclusion. Under USA Waste's executive compensation program, the total
compensation ultimately attainable by executive officers depends to a
significant degree upon the consistent achievement of corporate objectives that
lead to stockholder value and accordingly, has the desired result of aligning
the interests of the executive officers with those of the stockholders. The
pay-out of any incentive compensation is the result of overall corporate
performance, including earnings per share. The options grants, which have been
significant, have had the desired result of attracting talented executives into
USA Waste and properly aligning their interests with the interests of the USA
Waste stockholders. The result has been consistent, solid performance for the
stockholders of USA Waste.

The Compensation Committee:
Jerome B. York, Chairman
William E. Moffett
Alexander W. Rangos

EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

Messrs. Drury, Proto and DeFrates are each parties to employment agreements
with USA Waste, which have continuously renewing terms of five years and which
provide for the payment of minimum annual base salaries and for participation in
all USA Waste benefit plans and programs. Mr. Sutherland-Yoest is a party to a
substantially similar employment agreement with USA Waste and Canadian Waste,
which has a continuously renewing term of five years. Mr. Rothrock is a party to
a substantially similar employment agreement with USA Waste, which has a
continuously renewing term of three years.

The employment agreements include provisions governing compensation and
severance benefits upon termination of employment with USA Waste and upon
certain changes of control of USA Waste.

In the event that the employment of the employee is terminated by reason of
death or total disability, the employment agreements provide that USA Waste
shall pay (i) all accrued and unpaid base salary of the respective employee,
(ii) all benefits to which the employee is entitled under any USA Waste benefit
plans or policies and (iii) the base salary which would have been payable to the
employee if he had continued in employment throughout the respective employment
term. In addition, all stock options held by the employee become fully vested.

The employment agreements provide that an employee's employment may be
terminated by USA Waste for cause (as defined in the employment agreements) or
without cause. In the event that an employee's employment is terminated for
cause, the employment agreements provide that USA Waste shall pay all accrued
and unpaid base salary of the respective employee and all benefits to which he
is entitled under any USA Waste benefit plans or policies through the
termination date. In the event that an employee's employment is terminated
without cause, the employment agreements provide that, in addition to amounts
payable upon a termination for cause, USA Waste shall pay to the respective
employee an amount equal to 75% of his total direct annual compensation (as
defined in the employment agreements), and maintain certain health benefits and
other insurance coverage for such employee and his spouse and dependents for a
specified period after termination.

The employment agreements may be terminated by the employee at any time
after providing USA Waste with 90 days written notice. In the event an employee
terminates the agreement, other than following a change of control of USA Waste,
the employee will be entitled to receive all of his accrued and unpaid base
salary and all benefits to which he is entitled under any USA Waste benefit
plans or policies through the termination date.

In connection with a change of control of USA Waste, the employment
agreements provide that the employee shall be paid certain compensation if such
employee resigns or is terminated from employment with USA Waste at any time
within six months of the change of control following the occurrence of any of
the

10
13

following events: (i) a change of his reporting, responsibilities, titles or
offices as in effect immediately before the change of control; (ii) a reduction
in the employee's base salary as in effect immediately before the change of
control; (iii) a failure of USA Waste substantially to maintain and continue
employee's participation in all benefit plans; (iv) the change of the employee's
principal place of employment to a location more than 50 miles from the
employee's original place of employment; (v) failure of USA Waste to pay the
employee any compensation to which he is entitled within seven days of the date
such compensation is due; and (vi) failure of USA Waste to obtain an assumption
of the respective employment agreement by any successor to USA Waste.

The compensation payable to the employee upon such a resignation or
termination following a change of control shall include: (i) all accrued and
unpaid base salary of the respective employee; (ii) all benefits to which he is
entitled under any USA Waste benefit plans or policies; (iii) an amount equal to
$1.00 less than three times the employee's "base amount" within the full meaning
of Section 280G of the Code; (iv) the immediate vesting of all accrued and
unpaid benefits, awards and grants (including stock options); and (v) a bonus or
incentive compensation payment, pro-rated to the effective date of resignation
or termination. In the event that the benefits payable to the employee
constitute an "excess parachute payment" under Section 280G of the Code, the
employment agreements provide that USA Waste shall pay the employee an
additional amount to reimburse him on an after-tax basis for any excise tax
imposed on such payments under Section 4999 of the Code.

The employment agreements also include such non-competition,
non-solicitation and non-disparagement covenants as are customary, in nature and
scope, for such agreements.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

During 1997, Messrs. Moffett, Alexander Rangos and York served on the
Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. During 1997, no executive
officer of USA Waste served as (i) a member of the compensation committee (or
other board committee performing equivalent functions) of another entity, one of
whose executive officers served on the Compensation Committee, (ii) a director
of another entity, one of whose executive officers served on the Compensation
Committee or (iii) a member of the compensation committee (or other board
committee performing equivalent functions) of another entity, one of whose
executive officers served as a director of USA Waste.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Effective November 11, 1997, following USA Waste's acquisition of United,
Mr. Shirvanian resigned as an employee in connection with the change of control
provisions in his employment agreement with USA Waste. In connection with the
termination of Mr. Shirvanian's employment agreement, USA Waste granted Mr.
Shirvanian certain severance benefits, including a cash payment of $200,000, the
issuance of 230,000 unregistered shares of Common Stock, and a warrant to
purchase 290,625 shares of Common Stock at $36.875 per share (the closing price
on the date of his termination). USA Waste has also agreed to allow Mr.
Shirvanian and his spouse to participate in the medical and dental insurance
plans of USA Waste until May 31, 2001 and has agreed to keep in force its
agreement to continue a split dollar life insurance agreement (the "Insurance
Agreement") entered into in 1995 by Western and Mr. and Mrs. Kosti Shirvanian
and Ms. Linda Shirvanian, as trustee for the Kosti and Marian Shirvanian Family
1995 Irrevocable Trust (the "Trust"). The Insurance Agreement provides for life
insurance on the life of Mr. Shirvanian or the lives of Mr. and Mrs. Shirvanian.
The beneficiary of the policy is the Trust. The beneficiaries of the Trust are
the descendants of Mr. and Mrs. Shirvanian. Under the Insurance Agreement, the
premium payment obligations are split between Western and the Trust. The
estimated discounted single premium payment required to pay in full the
obligations under the Insurance Agreement would be approximately $7 million, of
which approximately $2.35 million represents the Trust's share of such premium.
In connection with USA Waste's acquisition of Western, USA Waste assumed the
payment obligations of both Western and the Trust. All premium payments made by
USA Waste or Western are recoupable out of the death benefits of such policy.
Additionally, in connection with Mr. Shirvanian's employment termination, he has
agreed to certain non-competition provisions effective until December 31, 2002.

SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Under the federal securities laws, USA Waste's directors, executive (and
certain other) officers and any person holding more than ten percent of USA
Waste Common Stock are required to report their ownership to USA Waste and the
Commission. Specific due dates for these reports have been established by
regulation and USA Waste is required to report in this Proxy Statement any
failure to file by these dates during 1997. All of these filings were satisfied
by USA Waste's directors, officers and ten percent holders, except that Messrs.
Heckmann, Alexander Rangos and John Rangos, Sr. each failed to file on a timely
basis one report concerning one transaction.

As of March 1, 1998, USA Waste believes that all directors, officers and
ten percent holders are current in their filings. In making these statements,
USA Waste has relied on the written representations of its directors, officers
and ten percent holders and copies of reports that they have filed with the
Commission.

APPROVAL OF AMENDMENT TO THE USA WASTE 1993 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN

USA Waste has for many years utilized stock incentives as part of its
overall compensation program. The Board of Directors of USA Waste believes stock
options and stock-based incentives play an important role in attracting and
retaining the services of outstanding personnel and in encouraging such
employees to have a greater personal financial investment in USA Waste. For a
more detailed discussion, see the Compensation Committee Report above.

USA Waste stockholders approved the 1993 Stock Incentive Plan at their 1993
annual meeting. In 1995, in connection with USA Waste's acquisition of Chambers,
the stockholders of USA Waste approved an amendment to the 1993 Stock Incentive
Plan to increase shares available for issuance under the 1993 Stock Incentive
Plan from 1,000,000 to 4,000,000. In 1996, in connection with USA Waste's
acquisition of Western, the stockholders of USA Waste approved an amendment to
the 1993 Stock Incentive Plan to increase shares available for issuance under
the 1993 Stock Incentive Plan from 4,000,000 to 6,500,000.

The 1993 Stock Incentive Plan permits the granting, either alone or in
combination, of "nonqualified" stock options that do not qualify for beneficial
treatment under the Code, incentive stock options under Section 422 of the Code,
reload options, alternate appreciation rights, limited rights and stock bonuses.
Grants may be made to officers, other employees and consultants of USA Waste who
are responsible for or contribute to the management, growth, success and
profitability of USA Waste and who are designated by the Compensation Committee,
which administers the 1993 Stock Incentive Plan.

Stock options permit the recipient to purchase shares of USA Waste Common
Stock at a fixed price, determined on the date of grant, regardless of the fair
market value on the date of exercise. The holder of an alternative appreciation
right is entitled to receive the excess of the fair market value on the date of
exercise over the grant price of the right. Stock bonuses may provide the
recipient all of the rights of a USA Waste stockholder, including the right to
vote the shares and receive dividends; however, the stock may not be transferred
by the recipient until certain restrictions (as determined by the committee)
lapse.

The Board of Directors of USA Waste has amended the 1993 Stock Incentive
Plan to increase the number of shares of USA Waste Common Stock authorized for
granting of awards under the 1993 Stock Incentive Plan from 6,500,000 to
16,500,000 and has directed that such amendment be submitted for approval by a
vote of the Company's stockholders. As of the date of such amendment by the
Board of Directors, there were no shares available for awards under the 1993
Stock Incentive Plan. The Board of Directors of USA Waste believes the increase
in shares available under the 1993 Stock Incentive Plan was necessary to assure
that an adequate number of shares of USA Waste Common Stock would be available
for future award grants in order to provide appropriate incentives to employees
of USA Waste.
