Longwood, Florida-based Waste Pro USA Inc. has announced the promotion of Tracy Meehan to communications director. In her new role, Meehan will oversee internal and external corporate communication strategies, including press releases, public/media relations, social media, branding, marketing and company newsletters, according to the firm.

Meehan joined Waste Pro in 2014 as municipal marketing manager covering Waste Pro’s West Coast Region of Florida. In that role, she helped in the growth of one of Waste Pro’s largest markets through building and maintaining relationships with communities and municipalities, searching for new areas for potential opportunities for growth, interacting with customers, and coordinating and attending community events, says Waste Pro.

“It is a privilege to support the people who work to perform collection services to our community, municipal and commercial customers,” says Meehan. “I’m excited to be more involved with our companywide communications and marketing efforts.”

In addition to her work at Waste Pro, Meehan serves on numerous organizations and committees, including Keep Citrus County Beautiful, Keep Pinellas Beautiful, Recycle Florida Today, the Solid Waste Association of North America (SWANA) and St. Petersburg Young Professionals. In 2020, Meehan was re-appointed by the Pinellas County Commission to its Solid Waste Technical Management Committee. 

Waste Pro says it serves more than 2 million residential and 100,000 commercial customers from more than 80 operating locations in 10 Southeastern states.
