Boston-based Graham Waste Services, a family-owned and operated trash and recycling services provider, has acquired the weekly residential trash and recycling pick-up business Thompson Waste Removal of Hanson, Mass., for an undisclosed price.

The new addition will grow Graham Waste Service’s weekly residential trash and recycling pick-up business, as well as add new commercial customers.  Graham Waste Services has a presence throughout Massachusetts’ South Shore, and with the acquisition will expand that presence in several communities including Cohasset, Hingham, Hull, Scituate, Marshfield, Kingston, Hanson, Hanover, Carver, Plymouth, Plympton, Raynham, Taunton, Easton, Norton, Middleboro, Bridgewater, West Bridgewater, East Bridgewater, Halifax and Holbrook.

“This is an exciting opportunity to expand our footprint throughout our service area communities, and to establish a new presence in others,” Lynne Schwandt, Owner of Graham Waste Services, said in a statement. “Offering prompt, reliable and convenient service to customers is what we pride ourselves on, and we look forward to earning the trust of our newest customers.”       

The business transaction included Thompson Waste Removal’s residential and commercial trash pick-up customers as well as equipment. Thompson will continue to operate other sectors of their business separately.
