Casella Waste Systems Inc. has acquired Charlestown, Massachusetts-based recycling and waste services provider Save That Stuff. The transaction was completed Feb. 3.

“Save That Stuff is an outstanding company, and we’re pleased to have Erik Levy and his staff joining the Casella team,” says Jeff Weld, vice president of communications at Rutland, Vermont-based Casella. “The organization aligns well with our core competencies, and more importantly the culture Erik has built over the past 35 years aligns with our core values.”

Established in 1990 by President Erik Levy, Save That Stuff provides a range of recyclable materials collection and processing services and works with more than 3,000 New England businesses and institutions to safely dispose of recoverable materials.

Its 100,000-square-foot processing facility, located in the Charlestown neighborhood of Boston, is approximately 2 miles from Casella’s Charlestown material recovery facility (MRF).

“This acquisition will help provide more efficient service to existing hauling customers for both organizations, while also helping to drive additional circularity for our customers and complementing our recycling and materials management efforts throughout the greater Boston market,” Weld says. “We look forward to onboarding the team and bringing additional services and support to our newly acquired customers.”

Weld says Casella eventually will rebrand Save That Stuff’s assets.

Casella acquired a handful of companies in the second half of 2024, including New Jersey-based LMR Disposal LLC, Pennsylvania-based Whitetail Disposal and New York-based sister companies Royal Carting Service Co. and Welsh Sanitation Service.
