Meridian Waste, Charlotte, North Carolina, announced Feb. 3 that it has closed on the purchase of Sunrise Sanitation in the greater Greenville, South Carolina, market. The acquisition expands the company’s operations to seven states.
The acquisition includes the assets of Sunrise Sanitation Inc., which is headquartered in Easley, South Carolina. The terms of the purchase agreement were not disclosed.
The Sunrise Sanitation acquisition includes residential subscription and commercial contracts in South Carolina’s Anderson and Greenville Counties. The front line team members of Sunshine Sanitation will remain with Meridian Waste after the acquisition, which will help ensure a seamless transition, the company says.
This marks Meridian Waste’s first acquisition within South Carolina and the 14th acquisition since the company transitioned to private stock under the ownership of Jacksonville Beach, Florida-based Warren Equity Partners (WEP) in April 2018.
