Basis Of Presentation [Abstract] | |
Basis Of Presentation | Note 1. Basis of Presentation Terminix Global Holdings, Inc. and its majority-owned subsidiary partnerships, limited liability companies and corporations (collectively, “Terminix,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” and “our”) is a leading provider of essential services to residential and commercial customers in the termite and pest control markets. Our portfolio of well‑recognized brands includes Terminix, Copesan, Assured Environments, Gregory Pest Solutions, McCloud Services, Nomor and Pelias. All consolidated Company subsidiaries are wholly-owned. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Our operations are organized into one reportable segment, our pest management and termite business. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by us in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). We recommend that the quarterly unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020, as filed with the SEC (the “2020 Form 10-K”). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal and recurring adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented. The results of operations for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of the results that might be achieved for any other interim period or for the full year due to the seasonality of our business, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic (“COVID-19”) and the possibility of changes in general economic conditions. CFO Transition On March 4, 2021, we announced the appointment of Robert J. Riesbeck as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of the Company. Sale of ServiceMaster Brands On January 21, 2020, we announced we were exploring strategic alternatives related to ServiceMaster Brands, including the potential sale of the business. The divestiture group included the assets and liabilities of the ServiceMaster Brands businesses, which was comprised of the Amerispec, Furniture Medic, Merry Maids, ServiceMaster Clean and ServiceMaster Restore brands, certain assets and liabilities of ServiceMaster Acceptance Corporation, our financing subsidiary, and the ServiceMaster trade name (the “ServiceMaster Brands Divestiture Group”). On October 1, 2020, we completed the sale of the ServiceMaster Brands Divestiture Group to RW Purchaser LLC, an affiliate of investment funds managed by Roark Capital Management LLC (“Roark”). The ServiceMaster Brands Divestiture Group is reported in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q in discontinued operations. COVID-19 Since March 11, 2020 when the World Health Organization designated COVID-19 as a global pandemic, we have experienced increased demand in our residential pest management and termite and home services service lines as customers are spending more time at home. We have also experienced disruptions in our business, primarily in the commercial pest management service line, driven by temporary business closures and service postponements, and in our product sales and other service line. We continue to focus on initiatives to ensure the safety and productivity of our teammates, including personal protective equipment and safety policies and measures for field teammates, and technology to facilitate remote working, with most back-office and all call center teammates working remotely and field support teammates working remotely where possible. |

Significant Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Significant Accounting Policies | Note 2. Significant Accounting Policies Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 2 to the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. There have been no material changes to the significant accounting policies for the three months ended March 31, 2021, other than those described below. Adoption of New Accounting Standards In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “ Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes ,” which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions. We adopted this ASU on January 1, 2021, including the applicable retrospective and prospective provisions therein. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2021. In November 2020, the SEC issued Rule 33-10890, “ Management’s Discussion and Analysis, Selected Financial Data, and Supplementary Financial Information .” This rule could be early adopted in its entirety as of February 10, 2021. The rule modernized, simplified and enhanced financial statement disclosures required by Regulation S-K. We early adopted all the provisions in the rule as of February 10, 2021, which primarily resulted in the elimination of duplicative disclosure of legal matters and improved discussions within management’s discussion and analysis. We have reviewed all other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not expect the future adoption of any such pronouncements will have a material impact on our financial condition or the results of our operations. |

Revenues[Abstract] | |
Revenues | Note 3. Revenues The following tables present our reportable segment revenues from continuing operations, disaggregated by revenue source and geographic area. We disaggregate revenue from contracts with customers into major product lines. We determined that disaggregating revenue into these categories achieves the disclosure objective to depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors. European pest management revenue is now presented within Commercial Pest Management below, and prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation. Revenue by major service line was as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, (In millions) 2021 2020 Major service line Residential Pest Management $ 166 $ 159 Commercial Pest Management 129 124 Termite and Home Services 162 155 Sales of Products and Other 15 18 Total $ 471 $ 456 Revenue by geographic area was as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, (In millions) 2021 2020 United States $ 441 $ 431 International 30 25 Total $ 471 $ 456 Contract Balances Timing of revenue recognition may differ from the timing of invoicing to customers. Contracts with customers are generally for a period of one year or less and are generally renewable. We record a receivable related to revenue recognized on services once we have an unconditional right to invoice and receive payment in the future related to the services provided. All accounts receivables are recorded within Receivables, less allowances, on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. The current portion of Notes receivable, which represents amounts financed for customers, are included within Receivables, less allowances, on the condensed consolidated statement of financial position and totaled $ 25 million and $ 27 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. Deferred revenue represents a contract liability and is recognized when cash payments are received in advance of the performance of services, including when the amounts are refundable. Amounts are recognized as revenue upon completion of services. Changes in deferred revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 were as follows: (In millions) Deferred revenue Balance as of December 31, 2020 $ 102 Deferral of revenue 36 Recognition of deferred revenue ( 32 ) Balance as of March 31, 2021 $ 108 Balance as of December 31, 2019 $ 92 Deferral of revenue 31 Recognition of deferred revenue ( 31 ) Balance as of March 31, 2020 $ 93 Additionally, approximately $ 15 million of deferred revenue was recognized in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position primarily related to our acquisition of Nomor as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019. There was approximately $ 26 million of revenue recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2021, that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2020. There was approximately $ 24 million of revenue recognized in the three months ended March 31, 2020, that was included in the deferred revenue balance as of December 31, 2019. |

Restructuring and Other Charges We incurred restructuring charges of $ 6 million ( $ 5 million, net of tax) and $ 4 million ($ 3 million, net of tax) in the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, respectively . Restructuring and Other Charges included costs to simplify our back-office and align administrative functions as a singularly focused pest management company following the sale of the ServiceMaster Brands Divestiture Group. We expect substantially all of our accrued restructuring charges to be paid within the next 12 months.

Discontinued Operations [Abstract] | |
Discontinued Operations | Note 5. Discontinued Operations On October 1, 2020, we completed the sale of the ServiceMaster Brands Divestiture Group for $ 1,541 million, resulting in a gain of approximately $ 494 million, net of taxes. The historical results of the ServiceMaster Brands Divestiture Group are reported as discontinued operations for all periods presented herein. For all periods after the sale, discontinued operations includes the gain on sale and incidental costs to complete the sale. In connection with the sale of the ServiceMaster Brands Divestiture Group, the Company and Roark entered into a transition services agreement (“TSA”) whereby the Company will provide certain post-closing services to Roark and ServiceMaster Brands related to the business of ServiceMaster Brands. The charges for the transition services are designed to allow us to fully recover the direct costs of providing the services, plus specified margins and any out-of-pocket costs and expenses. The Company and Roark also entered into a sublease agreement whereby ServiceMaster Brands will sublease a portion of our corporate headquarters in Memphis, Tennessee. We recognized $ 2 million of TSA fees, rental income and other cost reimbursements in Selling and administrative expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) in the three months ended March 31, 2021. Payments received for TSA fees, other cost reimbursements and under the sublease agreement were $ 4 million in the three months ended March 31, 2021. At March 31, 2021, we had a receivable from Roark of $ 2 million included in Receivables on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, substantially all of which was collected subsequent to March 31, 2021. The following table summarizes the comparative financial results of discontinued operations which are presented as Net earnings from discontinued operations on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income: Three Months Ended (In millions) March 31, 2020 Revenue $ 65 Cost of services rendered and products sold 29 Operating expenses (1) 18 Income before income taxes 17 Provision for income taxes 5 Net earnings from discontinued operations $ 13 ___________________________________ (1) Includes $ 4 million of professional fees and other costs incurred in connection with the strategic evaluation and ultimate sale in the three months ended March 31, 2020 .

Commitments And Contingencies [Abstract] | |
Commitments And Contingencies | Note 6. Commitments and Contingencies We carry insurance policies on insurable risks at levels that we believe to be appropriate, including workers’ compensation, automobile and general liability risks. We purchase insurance policies from third-party insurance carriers, which typically incorporate significant deductibles or self-insured retentions. We are responsible for all claims that fall below the retention limits, exceed our coverage limits or are otherwise not covered by our insurance policies. In determining our accrual for self-insured claims, we use historical claims experience to establish both the current year accrual and the underlying provision for future losses. This actuarially determined provision and related accrual include known claims, as well as incurred but not reported claims. We adjust our estimate of accrued self-insured claims when required to reflect changes based on factors such as changes in health care costs, accident frequency and claim severity. In the normal course of business, we periodically enter into agreements that incorporate indemnification provisions. While the maximum amount to which we may be exposed under such agreements cannot be estimated, we do not expect these guarantees and indemnifications to have a material effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows. A reconciliation of beginning and ending accrued self-insured claims, which are included in Accrued liabilities—Self-insured claims and related expenses and Other long-term obligations, primarily self-insured claims on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, net of insurance recoverables, which are included in Prepaid expenses and other assets and Other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, is presented as follows: Accrued Self-insured (In millions) Claims, Net Balance as of December 31, 2020 $ 126 Provision for self-insured claims 9 Cash payments ( 7 ) Balance as of March 31, 2021 $ 128 Balance as of December 31, 2019 $ 111 Provision for self-insured claims 13 Cash payments ( 8 ) Balance as of March 31, 2020 $ 116 Our business is subject to a significant number of damage claims related to termite activity in homes for which we provide termite control services, often accompanied by a termite damage warranty. Our termite damage warranty is a differentiator in the industry that has enabled us to become a market leader of this product line. Termite damage claims include circumstances when a customer notifies us that they have experienced damage to their property and we reach an agreement to remediate that damage (a “Non-Litigated Claim”); and circumstances when we do not reach an agreement with a customer to remediate the damage and that customer initiates litigation or arbitration proceedings (a “Litigated Claim”). We accrue for these liabilities when it is probable that future costs will be incurred and such costs can be reasonably estimated. Current activity can differ, causing a change in estimates which could be material. A reconciliation of beginning and ending accrued Litigated Claims, which are included in Accrued liabilities—Other and Other long-term obligations, primarily self-insured claims on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, and Non-Litigated Claims, which are included in Accrued liabilities—Self-insured claims and related expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position, is presented as follows: Accrued Termite Damage (In millions) Claims Balance as of December 31, 2020 $ 72 Provision for termite damage claims 15 Cash payments ( 17 ) Balance as of March 31, 2021 $ 69 Balance as of December 31, 2019 $ 80 Provision for termite damage claims 12 Cash payments ( 11 ) Balance as of March 31, 2020 $ 81 Mobile Bay Formosan Termite Settlement In November 2020, the Company entered into the Consent Judgment and Settlement Agreement (the “Settlement”) with the Office of the Attorney General of the State of Alabama (the “AL AG”) and other Alabama state regulators, primarily related to our termite renewal pricing changes we made in the Mobile Bay area in 2019 and certain other termite inspection and treatment practices regarding the control of Formosan termites in that area that allegedly violated the Alabama Deceptive Trade Practices Act (the “ADTPA”). The Settlement provides for: immediate remediation measures to be provided directly to current and former customers in the Mobile Bay Area, including refunds of certain price increases, rebates to certain former customers, the establishment of a $ 25 million consumer fund and a related receiver to oversee our compliance with these commitments and to act as an arbitrator for certain Non-litigated Claims; the reimbursement of certain investigative and monitoring costs incurred by the AL AG’s office and the Department of Agriculture and Industries; and a university endowment intended to support termite and pest management research with an emphasis on Formosan termite research. The Company has also agreed to pay the state of Alabama $ 19 million. Pursuant to the Settlement, we have also agreed to provide the opportunity to reinstate service for certain customers who canceled their services during specified timeframes as well as the retreatment of certain customer premises and a commitment to certain specified response and remediation timeframes for future termite damage claims. We do not expect the financial impact of these remedies to have a material impact on our prospective results of operations or cash flows. In the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company funded the $ 25 million consumer fund, from which certain monetary liabilities from settlements of, or judgments in, the covered Settlement are paid by the fund’s receiver. The amount in the consumer fund is held in escrow by the receiver and is classified as a deposit within Prepaid expenses and other assets and with an offsetting liability recorded within Accrued liabilities – Other on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. In the first quarter of 2021, the fund’s receiver paid $ 1 million from escrow in compliance with the Settlement. State of Mississippi Formosan Termite Litigation On April 22, 2021, the State of Mississippi brought litigation against us related to our termite inspection and treatment practices. The Company disputes the claims made in the litigation and intends to defend the matter vigorously. However, given the uncertainty of litigation, the preliminary stage of the case, and the legal standards that must be met for success on the merits, the Company cannot predict with certainty the outcome of the Mississippi litigation. Other Litigation In addition to the matters discussed above, in the ordinary course of conducting business activities, we and our subsidiaries become involved in judicial, administrative and regulatory proceedings involving both private parties and governmental authorities. We accrue for these liabilities when it is probable the future costs will be incurred and such costs can be reasonably estimated. Current activity can differ, causing a change in estimates which could be material. These proceedings include insured and uninsured matters that are brought on an individual, collective, representative and class action basis, or other proceedings involving regulatory, employment, general and commercial liability, automobile liability, wage and hour, environmental, shareholder and other matters. We have entered into settlement agreements in certain cases, including with respect to putative collective and class actions, which are subject to court or other approvals, and which require compliance with the terms of the agreements. If one or more of our settlements are not finally approved and implemented, we could have additional or different exposure, which could be material. Subject to the paragraphs above, we do not expect any of these proceedings to have a material effect on our reputation, business, financial position, results of operations or cash flows; however, we can give no assurance that the results of any such proceedings will not materially affect our reputation, business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows. |

Stock-Based Compensation [Abstract] | |
Stock-Based Compensation | Note 8. Stock-Based Compensation For each of the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020, we recognized stock-based compensation expense of $ 6 million ($ 4 million, net of tax) and $ 4 million ($ 3 million, net of tax), respectively. These charges are recorded within Selling and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. As of March 31, 2021 , there were $ 41 million of total unrecognized compensation costs related to non-vested stock options, restricted stock units (“RSUs”) and performance share units granted under the Amended and Restated Terminix Global Holdings, Inc. 2014 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Incentive Plan”). These remaining costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.19 years. On February 24, 2015, our board of directors approved and recommended for approval by our stockholders the Terminix Global Holdings, Inc. Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“Employee Stock Purchase Plan”), which became effective for offering periods commencing July 1, 2015. On April 27, 2015, our stockholders approved the Employee Stock Purchase Plan with a maximum of one million shares of common stock authorized for sale under the plan. On November 3, 2015, we filed a registration statement on Form S-8 under the Securities Act to register the one million shares of common stock that may be issued under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan and, as a result, all shares of common stock acquired under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan will be freely tradable under the Securities Act, unless purchased by our affiliates. Our Compensation Committee amended the Employee Stock Purchase Plan in February 2019 to allow for more frequent purchase periods and to change the allowed 10 percent discount to a company match of 10 percent of employee contributions. The authorized number of shares remaining in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan was not changed from 843,584 and the expiration date of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan was not changed from April 27, 2025 . As of March 31, 2021 there were 772,392 shares available for issuance under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. |

Acquisitions [Abstract] | |
Acquisitions | Note 13. Acquisitions Acquisitions have been accounted for as business combinations using the acquisition method and, accordingly, the results of operations of the acquired businesses have been included in the condensed consolidated financial statements since their dates of acquisition. The assets and liabilities of these businesses were recorded in the financial statements at their estimated fair values as of the acquisition dates. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, we used available cash on hand to fund a $ 22 million investment in acquisitions, which included $ 15 million for four tuck-in acquisitions. All acquisitions have been accounted for as business combinations. We also completed approximately $ 8 million of funding for a minority interest investment that was included in Accrued liabilities‒Other on the Consolidated Statements of Financial position as of December 31, 2020. We recorded preliminary goodwill of $ 11 million and other intangibles, primarily customer relationships, of $ 4 million. The purchase price allocations for these acquisitions will be finalized no later than one year from the respective acquisition dates. For incomplete purchase price allocations, we are evaluating working capital balances, the intangible and tangible assets acquired and appropriate useful lives to assign to all assets, including intangibles. During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we used available cash on hand to fund a $ 26 million investment in acquisitions, which included $ 6 million for five tuck-in pest control acquisitions that have been accounted for as business combinations, as well as $ 18 million for final funding for two pest control acquisitions and minority interests completed in 2019 that were included in Accrued liabilities—Other on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position as of December 31, 2019. We recorded $ 7 million of goodwill for the 2020 acquisitions. We also made a minority investment in a pest control company for approximately $ 7 million, which was unfunded and is included in Accrued Liabilities—Other on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position as of March 31, 2020. Supplemental cash flow information regarding the acquisitions was as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, (In millions) 2021 2020 Assets acquired $ 16 $ 7 Liabilities assumed — — Net assets acquired $ 16 $ 7 Net cash paid $ 15 $ 6 Seller financed debt 1 2 Purchase price $ 16 $ 7 |

Income Taxes [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | Note 14. Income Taxes As required by ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” we compute interim period income taxes by applying an anticipated annual effective tax rate to our year-to-date income or loss from continuing operations before income taxes, except for significant unusual or infrequently occurring items. Our estimated tax rate is adjusted each quarter in accordance with ASC 740. The effective tax rate on income (loss) from continuing operations was 28.5 percent and 227.3 percent for the three months ended March 31, 2021 and 2020 , respectively. The effective tax rate on loss from continuing operations for the three months ended March 31, 2020, was favorably impacted by the release of a federal reserve that was recorded discretely in the quarter. As of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, we had $ 14 million and $ 14 million, respectively, of tax benefits primarily reflected in U.S. Federal and state tax returns that have not been recognized for financial reporting purposes (“unrecognized tax benefits”). Based on information currently available, it is reasonably possible that over the next 12 month period unrecognized tax benefits may decrease by $ 2 million as the result of settlements of ongoing audits, statute of limitation expirations or final settlements of uncertain tax positions in multiple jurisdictions. Our policy is to recognize interest income, interest expense and penalties related to our tax positions within the tax provision. |
Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value Measurements [Abstract] | |
Fair Value Measurements | Note 15. Fair Value Measurements The period-end carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, restricted cash, accounts payable and accrued liabilities approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The period-end carrying amounts of long-term notes receivable approximate fair value as the effective interest rates for these instruments are comparable to period-end market rates. The period-end carrying amounts of short- and long-term marketable securities also approximate fair value, with unrealized gains and losses reported in interest and net investment income in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income. The carrying amount of total debt was $ 914 million and $ 920 million, and the estimated fair value was $ 985 million and $ 989 million as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively. The fair value of our debt is estimated based on available market prices for the same or similar instruments which are considered significant other observable inputs (Level 2) within the fair value hierarchy. The fair values presented reflect the amounts that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (exit price). The fair value estimates presented in this report are based on information available to us as of March 31, 2021 and December 31, 2020. We have estimated the fair value of our financial instruments measured at fair value on a recurring basis using the market and income approaches. For deferred compensation trust assets and derivative contracts, which are carried at their fair values, our fair value estimates incorporate quoted market prices, other observable inputs (for example, forward interest rates) and unobservable inputs (for example, forward commodity prices) at the balance sheet date. Interest rate swap contracts are valued using forward interest rate curves obtained from third-party market data providers. The fair value of each contract is the sum of the expected future settlements between the contract counterparties, discounted to present value. The expected future settlements are determined by comparing the contract interest rate to the expected forward interest rate as of each settlement date and applying the difference between the two rates to the notional amount of debt in the interest rate swap contracts. Fuel swap contracts are valued using forward fuel price curves obtained from third-party market data providers. The fair value of each contract is the sum of the expected future settlements between the contract counterparties, discounted to present value. The expected future settlements are determined by comparing the contract fuel price to the expected forward fuel price as of each settlement date and applying the difference between the contract and expected prices to the notional gallons in the fuel swap contracts. We regularly review the forward price curves obtained from third-party market data providers and related changes in fair value for reasonableness utilizing information available to us from other published sources. Effective March 3, 2020, we entered into a fixed-to-fixed cross-currency interest rate swap to hedge foreign currency risk associated with the fixed-rate Swedish krona denominated intercompany debt at Nomor. The five year interest rate swap matures March 31, 2025 and has a notional amount of 725 million Swedish krona, or approximately $ 74 million, and swaps interest payments of 3.5 percent Swedish krona for interest receipts of 4.147 percent U.S. dollar. This hedge was entered into to mitigate foreign currency risk inherent in Swedish krona denominated debt and is not for speculative trading purposes. This contract has been designated as a cash flow hedge of a fixed rate borrowing and is recorded at fair value. We also entered into a cross-currency swap agreement to hedge a portion of our net investment in Nomor against future volatility in the exchange rates between the Swedish krona and the U.S. dollar. The five year cross-currency swap has a fixed notional amount of 1.275 billion Swedish krona, or approximately $ 131 million, at an annual rate of zero percent and a maturity date of March 31, 2025 . At inception, the cross-currency swap was designated as a net investment hedge and is recorded at fair value. Changes in the fair value of these contracts are recorded within Other comprehensive (loss) income on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Financial Position. Interest accruals and coupon payments are recognized directly in interest expense, thus reflecting a Swedish krona fixed rate. Upon discontinuation of the net investment hedge, the changes in spot value and any amounts excluded from the assessment of hedge effectiveness that have not been recognized in earnings will remain within CTA until the hedged net investment is sold, diluted, or liquidated. We have not changed our valuation techniques for measuring the fair value of any financial assets and liabilities during the year. Transfers between levels, if any, are recognized at the end of the reporting period. There were no significant transfers between levels during each of the three month periods ended March 31, 2021 and 2020. The carrying amount and estimated fair value of our financial instruments that are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis for the periods presented were as follows: Estimated Fair Value Measurements Quoted Significant Prices In Other Significant Active Observable Unobservable Statement of Financial Carrying Markets Inputs Inputs (In millions) Position Location Value (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) As of March 31, 2021: Financial Assets: Deferred compensation trust Long-term marketable securities $ 14 $ 14 $ — $ — Fuel swap contracts Prepaid expenses and other assets and Other assets 6 — — 6 Total financial assets $ 20 $ 14 $ — $ 6 Financial Liabilities: Cross-currency interest rate swap Other long-term obligations $ 10 $ — $ 10 $ — Net investment hedge Other long-term obligations 16 — 16 — Interest rate swap contract Accrued liabilities—Other and Other long-term obligations 14 — 14 — Total financial liabilities $ 40 $ — $ 40 $ — As of December 31, 2020: Financial Assets: Deferred compensation trust assets Long-term marketable securities $ 14 $ 14 $ — $ — Fuel swap contracts Prepaid expenses and other assets and Other assets 3 — — 3 Total financial assets $ 18 $ 14 $ — $ 3 Financial Liabilities: Cross-currency interest rate swap Other long-term obligations $ 15 $ — $ 15 $ — Net investment hedge Other long-term obligations 23 — 23 — Interest rate swap contract Accrued liabilities—Other and Other long-term obligations 34 — 34 — Total financial liabilities $ 72 $ — $ 72 $ — A reconciliation of the beginning and ending fair values of financial instruments valued using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) on a recurring basis is presented as follows: Fuel Swap Contract Assets (In millions) (Liabilities) Location of Gain (Loss) included in Earnings Balance as of December 31, 2020 $ 3 Total gains (losses) (realized and unrealized) Included in earnings ( 1 ) Cost of services rendered and products sold Included in other comprehensive income 3 Settlements 1 Balance as of March 31, 2021 $ 6 Balance as of December 31, 2019 $ 1 Total gains (losses) (realized and unrealized) Included in earnings — Cost of services rendered and products sold Included in other comprehensive income ( 9 ) Settlements — Balance as of March 31, 2020 $ ( 8 ) The following tables present information relating to the significant unobservable inputs of our Level 3 financial instruments: Fair Value Valuation Weighted (in millions) Technique Unobservable Input Range Average As of March 31, 2021: Fuel swap contracts $ 6 Discounted Cash Flows Forward Unleaded Price per Gallon (1) $ 2.64 - $ 2.98 $ 2.83 As of December 31, 2020: Fuel swap contracts $ 3 Discounted Cash Flows Forward Unleaded Price per Gallon (1) $ 2.20 - $ 2.58 $ 2.44 ___________________________________ (1) Forward prices per gallon were derived from third-party market data providers. A decrease in the forward price would result in a decrease in the fair value of the fuel swap contracts. As of March 31, 2021, we had fuel swap contracts to pay fixed prices for fuel with an aggregate notional amount of $ 18 million, maturing through 2021. Under the terms of our fuel swap contracts, we are required to post collateral in the event that the fair value of the contracts exceeds a certain agreed upon liability level and in other circumstances required by the counterparty. As of March 31, 2021, we had posted $ 2 million in letters of credit as collateral under our fuel hedging program, which were issued under the Revolving Credit Facility. The effective portion of the gain or loss on derivative instruments designated and qualifying as cash flow hedging instruments is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income. These amounts are reclassified into earnings in the same period or periods during which the hedged forecasted debt interest settlement or the fuel settlement affects earnings. See Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements for the effective portion of the gain or loss on derivative instruments recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income and for the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income and into earnings. The amount expected to be reclassified into earnings during the next 12 months includes unrealized gains and losses related to open fuel hedges and interest rate swaps. Specifically, as the underlying forecasted transactions occur during the next 12 months, the hedging gains and losses in accumulated other comprehensive income expected to be recognized in earnings is a loss of less than $ 1 million, net of tax, as of March 31, 2021 . The amounts that are ultimately reclassified into earnings will be based on actual fuel prices and interest rates at the time the positions are settled and may differ materially from the amount noted above. |

Earnings Per Share [Abstract] | |
Earnings Per Share | Note 16. Earnings Per Share Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period, increased to include the number of shares of common stock that would have been outstanding had potential dilutive shares of common stock been issued. The dilutive effect of stock options, RSUs and performance share units are reflected in diluted earnings per share by applying the treasury stock method. A reconciliation of the amounts included in the computation of basic earnings per share from continuing operations and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations is as follows: Three Months Ended March 31, (In millions, except per share data) 2021 2020 Income from continuing operations $ 27 $ 1 Weighted-average common shares outstanding 131.4 134.9 Effect of dilutive securities: RSUs 0.3 0.1 Stock options (1) 0.2 0.1 Weighted-average common shares outstanding—assuming dilution 131.9 135.1 Basic earnings per share from continuing operations $ 0.20 $ 0.01 Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations $ 0.20 $ 0.01 ___________________________________ (1) Options to purchase 1.2 million shares for the three months ended March 31, 2020 were not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation because their effect would have been anti-dilutive. There were an insignificant amount of options that would have been anti-dilutive in the three months ended March 31, 2021. |

Newly Issued Accounting Standards | Adoption of New Accounting Standards In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, “ Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes ,” which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions. We adopted this ASU on January 1, 2021, including the applicable retrospective and prospective provisions therein. The adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2021. In November 2020, the SEC issued Rule 33-10890, “ Management’s Discussion and Analysis, Selected Financial Data, and Supplementary Financial Information .” This rule could be early adopted in its entirety as of February 10, 2021. The rule modernized, simplified and enhanced financial statement disclosures required by Regulation S-K. We early adopted all the provisions in the rule as of February 10, 2021, which primarily resulted in the elimination of duplicative disclosure of legal matters and improved discussions within management’s discussion and analysis. We have reviewed all other recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements and do not expect the future adoption of any such pronouncements will have a material impact on our financial condition or the results of our operations. |
