Meridian Waste, an integrated, non-hazardous solid waste services company, announced its asset acquisition of two construction and demolition (C&D) landfills located in Knoxville, Tenn. Poplar View Landfill at 1730 McMillan Station Road and Riverside Landfill at 3330 Delrose Drive have access to downtown, major highways and area construction projects, noted the company.
“The Knoxville market presents an attractive expansion opportunity due to its strong economic outlook, record levels of commercial and business development and steady population growth,” said Wally Hall, CEO of Meridian Waste, in a statement. “With our purchase of the only high-capacity landfills in the Knox County region, we are well positioned to grow our market share and become a vital community partner and employer for the landfills’ existing employees.”
