DTG Recycle, headquartered in Bothell, Washington, has announced its acquisition of United Recycling, a Snohomish, Washington-based provider of metal recycling, commercial and demolition recycling and organics services. The company services King and Snohomish counties through its two material recovery facilities and container fleet.

“Dan and Nicki McAuliffe are lauded in the industry for having built an amazing company with loyal customers and incredible employees. This acquisition combines the best talent in the industry and positions DTG Recycle to provide the best environmental solutions for our customers by adding additional services and locations. We are excited to welcome over 200 new employees to our team and to add a significant amount of equipment, trucks and containers to our existing fleet,” says Dan Guimont, chief development officer of DTG.

According to a news release, DTG will bring all United Recycling employees to its team, and the company is “excited to offer new growth opportunities among its various divisions.”

“The big winner here is the environment and our combined customer base,” says Tom Vaughn, CEO of DTG. “Both benefit from the efficiencies gained by accessing our combined network of Puget Sound facilities through lower emissions and shorter wait and drive times, and we are excited to offer United Recycling customers our full suite of frictionless integrated environmental services, including electronics recycling, sweeper trucks and portable sanitation.”

DTG Recycle was represented by the law firm of Stoel Rives LLP, Portland, Oregon, in the transaction.
