Waste collection and disposal company Waste Pro announced Tuesday that it has acquired two divisions of Port Allen-based WorkBox.
Waste Pro’s Baton Rouge and New Orleans/Kenner divisions will assume service of existing Workbox customers, according to the announcement. Workbox provides construction, industrial and residential products for solid waste, storage and sanitation customers throughout Louisiana.
As part of the deal, Waste Pro acquired Workbox’s rolloff open top dumpster and portable bathroom divisions. Workbox maintains sole ownership of its shipping and storage container division.
As part of the agreement, Workbox founder and CEO Martin Padial and his staff will continue working with all divisions as part of a partnership. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Editor’s note: This story has been updated since original publication to reflect Waste Pro bought two divisions of Workbox, not the entire company.
