The 2018 Atlanta sanitation strike was a labor strike involving approximately 120 sanitation workers employed by Republic Services in Atlanta, Georgia, United States. Represented by the International Brotherhood of Teamsters, the workers initiated the strike on August 10, 2018, in response to unresolved contract negotiations. Although the strike lasted only one day, it prompted renewed discussions, and several days later, the union and Republic Services reached an agreement on new labor contracts.
