Interstate Waste Services Expands Regional Presence

Interstate Waste Services, Inc. (IWS), a prominent player in the solid waste management industry, recently announced a strategic acquisition of North Atlantic Waste & Recycling, a long-established family-owned business in Connecticut, formerly known as Country Disposal. This acquisition marks a significant milestone in IWS's ongoing efforts to expand its operations across central and southern Connecticut.

Strengthening Regional Reach

As IWS seeks to broaden its geographic footprint, the addition of North Atlantic enhances the company's ability to provide high-quality waste collection, recycling, and disposal services to an increasing number of communities within the region. Mike DiBella, the CEO of IWS, expressed enthusiasm about the acquisition, noting it not only strengthens the company's operational capacity but also aligns with its mission of delivering reliable, community-oriented services. According to DiBella, “We're excited to welcome North Atlantic Waste Recycling to the IWS team. This acquisition reinforces our commitment to dependable service and operational excellence.”

On the other hand, Mike Couden, the owner of North Atlantic Waste & Recycling, shared his perspective on the merger, emphasizing that the partnership allows his family business to continue its legacy while enhancing the support and resources available for the team and the communities they serve. Couden stated, “IWS shares our commitment to reliability and putting customers first. This partnership ensures our legacy continues.”

Integration of Full Services

With the integration of North Atlantic's diverse service offerings, including its dedicated workforce and fleet of collection vehicles, IWS is poised to up its operational capabilities significantly. The merger is expected to streamline processes and enhance service delivery, allowing IWS to respond more effectively to customer needs throughout Connecticut.

The acquisition represents a continuation of IWS's strategic growth initiatives, following several other significant acquisitions in the past few years, including Seaside Waste Services in New Jersey and Pinto Service, Inc. in northern New Jersey. Each move aimed at reinforcing IWS's market leadership and commitment to sustainability.
