Meridian Waste Virginia, LLC, a non-hazardous, integrated solid waste services company, has acquired Richardson Waste Management, LLC.
The acquisition expands Meridian Waste’s roll-off collection operations bridging current operations between Christiansburg, Virginia and Sandy Ridge, North Carolina. Meridian Waste will also assume Richardson Waste’s hauling facility at 5567 Elk Horn Road in Woodlawn, Virginia, where the existing Richardson Waste employees will continue servicing the company’s roll off customers while expanding into Meridian Waste’s additional lines of business including frontload and residential collections.
The acquisition allows for greater internalization of waste at the company’s new Gate City Transfer Station located in Greensboro, North Carolina which is slated to open in Q1 2026 while densifying roll off collection routes in southwest Virginia into northcentral North Carolina.
Customers will experience no service disruptions and existing contact information remains valid.
“This tuck-in acquisition strategically connects two strong operating footprints and accelerates Meridian Waste’s ability to deliver expanded services across a growing region,” said Walter “Wally” Hall, chief executive officer of Meridian Waste. “By partnering with Dustin Richardson and the Richardson Waste team, we’re building on a proven local operation while unlocking scale, efficiency and a broader service platform that benefits customers across both states.”
