Waste Connections rebrands Canadian division

Company changes its name from Progressive Waste Solutions to Waste Connections of Canada.


Waste Connections Inc., an integrated waste services company headquartered in The Woodlands, Texas, has announced plans to rebrand its Canadian operations from Progressive Waste Solutions to Waste Connections of Canada. The rebranding follows the June 1, 2016 all-stock business combination of the company and Waste Connections Inc.

"This is a very exciting change for our employees," says Dan Pio, president, Canadian operations. "We are proud to be rebranding our business operations in Canada to better align them with the Waste Connections brand and its high correlation with safety, corporate culture, integrity and customer service. The tireless efforts of our talented and dedicated employees have garnered significant customer loyalty and support throughout the years, and we believe Waste Connections of Canada is well positioned for continued growth and success in the communities we serve."

The roll out of the name Waste Connections of Canada and a new logo will begin immediately and the full transition is expected to take place over the next 12-16 months.

Waste Connections provides waste collection, transfer, disposal and recycling services in mostly exclusive and secondary markets in the United States and Canada. The company serves more than six million residential, commercial, industrial and exploration and production customers from a network of operations in 39 states, six provinces and the District of Columbia.
