Raleigh, NC  - Meridian Waste North Carolina, LLC, an integrated, non-hazardous solid waste services company, announced the acquisition of two related companies located in Liberty, NC with Coble’s Sandrock, Inc. a permitted construction and demolition debris (C&D) landfill along with the assets of Coble’s Container Service, LLC, a roll off collection company.  Meridian Waste has also negotiated a new landfill franchise agreement with Alamance County offering environmental and financial benefits for the County while expanding the geographic acceptance area of the landfill to twenty-six North Carolina counties.  The closing was effective September 1.

The addition of the newly renamed Tri-Corners Landfill (previously Coble’s Sandrock landfill) to Meridian Waste’s North Carolina operations portfolio increases disposal capacity in the greater Piedmont Triad region to help manage the growing population and construction growth throughout the cities and counties in the region, specifically the fast-growing Triad Counties of Alamance, Davie, and Franklin, and the cities of Winston-Salem, Greensboro, and High Point. 

“The inclusion of Tri-Corners Landfill and our newest hauling customers within Meridian Waste operations extends further growth north from the Raleigh marketplace following the development expansion in North Carolina,” said Patrick Messinger, Meridian Waste’s Area President, North Carolina.  “Our collection and disposal operations are vital to the successful and responsible management of the building industry, and we welcome our newest customers and partners to Meridian Waste.”
