Casella Waste Systems acquires Al’s Maintenance

The collection services provider is Casella's latest acquisition this year.

Casella Waste Systems, Inc., headquartered in Rutland, Vermont, recently announced that it acquired the assets of Al's Maintenance, based in Rochester, New York, on Dec. 1.

Al's is a provider of residential and roll-off collection services in the Rochester market. Casella says it expects to generate approximately $7 million of annualized revenues from the Al's acquisition.

"With the acquisition of Al's, we have acquired roughly $77 million of annualized revenues during 2018," says John W. Casella, the chairman and CEO of Casella Waste Systems, Inc.

"The Rochester market is an important strategic market for us, as it is a major population center that is near three of our Western New York landfills," Casella says. "We are excited about the Al's acquisition as it will integrate well with our existing operations in the Rochester market by allowing us to build further route density, drive operational and back-office efficiencies, and internalize additional waste to our disposal sites.

"The Al's team has built an outstanding business that is well regarded by its customers, has solid operational performance and an excellent team," Casella says. "We welcome the hard-working team from Al's to Casella, and we look forward to their help in driving the integration of our Rochester operations."

Casella has made several other acquisitions recently, including the Rochester-based Boon & Sons, Inc. and Oceanside Rubbish, Inc., headquartered in Sanford, Maine.
