About Exodus Waste Solutions
Exodus Waste Solutions is a family-owned, owner-led company built to give healthcare providers a more transparent, responsive, and relationship-driven alternative for regulated waste management.
Our leadership team brings decades of combined experience serving healthcare providers throughout Florida.
Why Exodus Exists
After decades of experience serving healthcare providers across Florida, the leadership behind Exodus believed the industry needed something better: clearer pricing, stronger communication, greater accountability, and service built around long-term relationships rather than corporate layers.
Exodus Waste Solutions was founded as a family-owned, owner-led alternative. The company combines enterprise-level systems with the responsiveness of a local team that knows its customers, understands their facilities, and remains personally accountable for the outcome.
Exodus is new as a company name, but the people behind it are not new to the work. The leadership team brings decades of experience in regulated medical waste, logistics, compliance, customer relationships, and healthcare service.
"More than a vendor. A partner you can trust. We believe medical waste management should be transparent, predictable, and personal — because the people who care for patients deserve the same care from the company that serves them."
Why the Name Exodus?
Exodus means departure with purpose. For the company, it represents helping healthcare providers move away from hidden fees, confusing agreements, impersonal service, and transactional relationships — and toward transparency, stability, and trust.
The name is also rooted in the company's faith-led values and the belief that leadership should be guided by integrity, stewardship, service, and conviction.

A Different Kind of Healthcare Waste Partner
Andrew Rodriguez started Exodus Waste Solutions because he couldn't ignore what he was seeing in the industry. Year after year, healthcare providers were hit with automatic price increases buried in contracts, confusing compliance language, and service models that felt transactional rather than relational. Customers weren't rewarded for loyalty — they were leveraged. He believed there had to be a better way. Healthcare providers deserve transparency, fair pricing, and a partner who educates and protects them — not just invoices them.
Why Exodus
"Exodus" means departure with purpose. For Andrew, it represents helping customers step away from hidden fees, complicated contracts, and impersonal service — and move toward stability, transparency, and trust. The name is also deeply personal, rooted in a story of deliverance and purposeful leadership. It represents three things: freedom from predatory pricing, leadership that's willing to do things differently, and stewardship that serves people rather than exploiting them.
The Experience Clients Deserve
Healthcare providers already carry enormous responsibility. Compliance, audits, staffing, and patient care all create pressure — waste management shouldn't add more stress. When clients work with Exodus, Andrew wants them to feel calm, knowing this part of their operation is handled, protected from compliance risks, and respected with clear pricing and honest communication. His goal is for every client to be able to say: "I don't have to think about waste anymore — I trust them."
The Road to Exodus
Andrew's roots in the medical waste industry go back to his uncle, an early pioneer in the space. He joined his family's medical waste business while still in high school — starting in the warehouse, stocking shelves, cleaning floors, loading trucks, and learning the business from the ground up. Through startups, growth, and acquisitions across more than two decades, he developed a deep understanding of what healthcare providers need from a waste management partner — and what the industry too often fails to deliver. Exodus Waste Solutions was born from that conviction: legacy, responsibility, and an opportunity to serve an industry that deserves better partners.

Jose Yero
Chief Executive Officer
Four Decades of Industry Experience
Jose Yero began his career at just 15 years old, learning every aspect of the medical waste business from the ground up. Under the mentorship of Florida's industry pioneer Carlos Campos, he developed a deep understanding of operational, regulatory, and customer service principles that continue to guide him today. Jose brings more than four decades of experience in Florida's regulated medical waste industry — spanning transportation, logistics, operations, regulatory compliance, customer relationships, and strategic growth.
A Philosophy That Never Changes
Through decades of industry change, one thing has remained constant — his philosophy. Customers deserve honesty. Employees deserve respect. Promises should be kept. That philosophy is one of the foundations of Exodus Waste Solutions. After joining the Exodus leadership team, Jose brought with him decades of experience, steady leadership, and a commitment to building a company that healthcare providers can depend on for the long term. As Chief Executive Officer, he works closely with the team to ensure that every decision reflects integrity, accountability, responsiveness, and service.
A Servant Leader
Those who know Jose best describe him as a servant leader. He leads by example, never asks others to do what he wouldn't do himself, and believes that success is measured not only by business growth, but by the impact you have on the people around you. He has mentored countless employees who have gone on to become leaders themselves. Jose earned a strong reputation for integrity, operational excellence, and customer service across Florida's medical waste industry.
His Vision for Exodus
Jose believes the best business relationships are earned not through contracts, but through consistency. Every customer deserves reliable service, transparent communication, and direct access to leadership when they need it. His vision for Exodus is simple: build something that lasts. Not just in business, but in the lives of the people we serve.

Marlene Yero
Vice President
Two Decades of Service
For more than two decades, Marlene Yero has served Florida's healthcare community in the regulated medical waste industry. Her career began as a paralegal, where she developed a deep appreciation for precision, accountability, and integrity. Those values have guided every chapter of her professional life and ultimately led her into medical waste — where the stakes for documentation, compliance, and trust are equally high.
Building a Family-Owned Company
After more than two decades serving healthcare providers across Florida — through startups, growth, and acquisitions — we believed healthcare deserved something better: better communication, better accountability, better transparency. Exodus Waste Solutions is a family-owned, owner-operated company headquartered in Doral, FL. We are new as a name, but not new to this work.
A Partner Beyond Waste
As Vice President, Marlene's passion is building lasting relationships with healthcare providers throughout Florida. She believes the company's role extends far beyond collecting medical waste. The Exodus team sees itself as educators, problem-solvers, and trusted advisors who help customers navigate compliance, control costs, and focus on what matters most — their patients.
Empowering Through Education
One of the most rewarding parts of Marlene's work is sharing knowledge. Through educational articles, videos, and industry insights, she strives to simplify complex regulations and provide practical information that empowers healthcare professionals to make informed decisions. She believes transparency builds confidence, and that an informed customer is the best customer.
Building a Legacy of Trust
Marlene's faith is the foundation of how she leads and how she serves. It reminds her that every business relationship is ultimately about people. Whether meeting with a new customer, creating educational content, or representing Exodus in the community, her goal is the same: to lead with integrity, serve with excellence, and leave every person better than she found them. At Exodus Waste Solutions, the team isn't simply building a business — they're building a legacy of trust, one relationship at a time.
