Frequently asked questions
What is Capital Waste Services' investment strategy?
The firm pursues a buy-and-build consolidation strategy in the US solid-waste sector. It acquires small- to mid-sized waste-hauling companies, transfer stations, and landfills, primarily in secondary and tertiary markets. The goal is to achieve route density within geographic clusters, creating an integrated collection, transfer, and disposal network that builds a defensible local competitive position.
What types of assets does Capital Waste Services acquire?
The firm acquires operating businesses with hard assets, including truck fleets, transfer-station real estate, municipal collection contracts, and landfill permits. The strategy emphasizes vertical integration, meaning the firm prefers to own collection, transfer, and disposal assets within the same geographic cluster to control the full waste-logistics chain.
