Ecowaste Solutions Deepens Georgia Roots with Taylor Waste Services Acquisition

Acquisition Brings Ecowaste’s Regional Model to Grady County, Adding Three Municipal Contracts, 4,500 Commercial and Industrial Customers, and 12 Routes

COPPELL, TX, UNITED STATES, September 21, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Ecowaste Solutions, a regional waste and recycling company operating across ten states, announced today the acquisition of Taylor Waste Services, a family-owned hauler based in Cairo, Georgia, marking the company’s second acquisition in the state and its 13th since the merger. Ecowaste looks to merge its Decatur County operations into Taylor Waste, with service transitioning to Ecowaste effective September 21, 2026.

For more than 20 years, Taylor Waste Services has been the primary hauler serving Grady County, built by Chris and Julie Taylor into a trusted name across Cairo and the surrounding communities of South Georgia. The company runs 12 routes daily, serves approximately 4,500 commercial customers, three municipalities, and nearly 1,000 subscription accounts across the county. This acquisition is expected to facilitate additional growth into North Florida and Southwest Georgia, and to offer operational leverage with Ecowaste’s newly launched Columbia County, Florida, operations.

Owner Chris Taylor, along with the Taylor Waste drivers, is staying on with Ecowaste to guide the team through the transition, offering continuity, which Ecowaste points to as a sign of the strong relationships this team has built over two decades.

“Chris and his family have grown into a strong local presence as the primary hauler in Grady County that both businesses and residents rely on every week,” said Chief Executive Officer Dustin Reynolds. “That kind of standing in a community only comes from decades of reliable, safe service, and we’re not interested in changing what already works.”

Reynolds added that the acquisition strengthens Ecowaste’s presence in South Georgia. “We’re investing in a new facility here in Cairo, with a new truck terminal, a robust laydown yard, and state-of-the-art equipment to facilitate growth. Our investment in a new fleet equipped with artificial intelligence will facilitate improved, proactive safety measures and routing to reduce risk exposure. Chris staying on to help guide this transition is key to our success and will help ensure a smooth transition for his employees and customers alike.”

The Taylor Waste acquisition builds on Ecowaste’s growing presence across the Southeast, following the company’s April 2026 acquisition of Adams Sanitation, which brought Ecowaste into Georgia for the first time, and its earlier acquisition of MDI Enterprises’ waste operations across Alabama, Florida, and Mississippi. Each deal follows the same approach: acquire locally rooted operators, keep their people and their routes in place, and invest in the infrastructure behind them. It’s what the company’s tagline, “The strength of a region. The heart of a neighbor,” means in practice: getting stronger as a regional operator without losing the local feel that built these businesses in the first place.
