I’ve had a really good experience with Rees, Larry, and the rest of the team at AER. I needed help with some air and stormwater permitting and compliance issues. They jumped in and helped with three different air permits at two different sites, expansions, and compliance reporting, all at a very fair price. I highly recommend their services.

Our company, Iatric, has worked closely with AER on managing our chemical waste and waste treatment projects, and the experience has been excellent. The AER team has been a tremendous asset, knowledgeable, reliable, and always committed to helping us operate responsibly and protect the environment. They’ve been extremely flexible in scheduling waste pickups and responsive whenever we needed support. We truly value their expertise and partnership and would highly recommend AER to anyone looking for a dependable environmental services provider.

Working with Appalachian Environmental Resources (AER) since 2021, I can state my experience has been nothing short of superb. Their organization has helped to revamp our company’s environmental program to one of respectability. As we have experienced positive growth over the last few years, AER has assisted in managing two Air Permits, two Storm Water Prevention Plans, and a Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure Plan. In addition, AER has assisted in re-writing amendments of plans as needed, and made themselves available during state inspections, and provided experts for instruction in all things environmental.

Larry, Rees, and every other employee I have interacted with from AER have been professional to a T. Our company has used AER for years. It’s been good to partner with a group that can assist with permitting and consulting as well as these guys. Working with them on waste disposal projects, I can say that they know how to be safe, legal, and also cost-effective.
