E360s Enters US Market with Acquisition of Marcotte Disposal

Canadian waste hauler E360s has officially entered the United States market through the acquisition of Marcotte Disposal, a company operating near the Michigan-Ontario border. This move marks the first international expansion for the BlackRock-backed firm, which has historically focused on scaling its vertically integrated operations across five Canadian provinces. The acquisition is a key step in the company's long-term strategy to become a leading player in the U.S. municipal solid waste and environmental services sectors.

E360s, founded in 2018 and headquartered in Aurora, Ontario, has utilized backing from BlackRock since 2023 to aggressively expand its footprint. The acquisition of Marcotte Disposal strengthens the company's presence near the Detroit region, complementing its existing Windsor, Ontario, operations that specialize in portable toilet services. While Marcotte already maintained operations in both the U.S. and Canada, the deal integrates Marcotte’s leadership—including CEO Tracey Kaplin and President Michael Griffin—into the E360s organization.

The expansion into the U.S. follows several years of planning that were previously delayed by factors such as the pandemic. Ardellini has indicated that the company aims to become a top-tier competitor in the U.S. market, envisioning a position as either the number one player or number two behind a publicly traded competitor. As of 2025, E360s reported generating nearly 1 billion Canadian dollars in revenue and serving over 800,000 customers across Alberta, British Columbia, Ontario, Quebec, and Saskatchewan.

Alongside the Marcotte deal, E360s announced the acquisition of Sarnia-based Transco Waste and Recycling Centre. These moves follow other recent acquisitions, including the waste collection assets of Alberta-based Caron’s Waste Management & Oilfield Service and the liquid waste assets of Monsieur Vide-Tout in Quebec. The company continues to operate dozens of facilities, including 19 material recovery facilities (MRFs) and a landfill in Saskatchewan, as it transitions from a regional Canadian player to an international waste management entity.

The vertically integrated company provides a wide range of waste management, environmental, and recycling services. While the primary focus for U.S. expansion is municipal solid waste, the company has stated it could also pursue environmental services opportunities as they arise. This strategic growth is supported by a robust infrastructure that now includes its own producer responsibility organization, reflecting a significant scale-up from its origins as a small paper recycling operation.
