Advanced Disposal now owns assets of Trash Prince

March 12 -- Advanced Disposal Services Inc. now owns the Polk County, Fla., assets of Trash Prince Inc., which does business under the Trash Taxi name.

Trash Taxi provides solid waste collection services to residents and businesses in Ft. Meade as well as other residential subscription customers, Advanced Disposal said. The company also has hundreds of commercial frontload and roll-off customers in Polk, Pasco and Orange counties.

The purchase included customer contracts, containers and nine Trash Taxi trucks as well as a long-term lease an office and maintenance facility in Winter Haven, Fla.

"Adding Trash Taxi and its employees to our solid waste and recycling team here in Florida is an exciting and beneficial opportunity for Advanced Disposal as it grows our Florida footprint and positions the company to respond quickly and effectively to a rebound in the economy," said Dave Lavender, Advanced Disposal´s Florida-area president.
