Robinson Waste, headquartered in Layton, Utah, provides construction and industrial services, commercial services, residential services, and recycling services. According to Republic Services' 10-Q filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, Robinson's vertically integrated recycling and waste services business is considered complementary to Republic Services' existing core capabilities and expertise in the environmental services industry.

Phoenix-based Republic Services disclosed in its first-quarter earnings call that its merger and acquisition spending reached $433 million as of March 31, exceeding $700 million by April.

ERA Partners stated that since investing in Robinson Waste in August 2024, it has implemented a strategic transformation. The investment focused on expanding Robinson's recycling and transfer station infrastructure capabilities while strengthening its core collection business. ERA noted that it worked closely with management to implement a comprehensive value creation strategy aimed at supporting long-term growth, operational scalability, and enhancing environmental infrastructure services in the region.

According to U.S. Department of Transportation records, Robinson Waste was founded by Steve Robinson and Karen Robinson in 1989 and currently operates over 100 vehicles. During ERA's ownership, the company implemented several initiatives, including integrating multiple value-added collection operations, acquiring a materials recovery facility, expanding and modernizing the company's fleet, and developing a transfer station in Ogden, Utah.

Ryan Barnes, Managing Partner of ERA Partners, stated that Robinson Waste represents the type of platform ERA seeks to identify and expand, noting that the collaboration with the Robinson family and management team accelerated the company's growth trajectory, expanded its recycling and transfer capabilities, and solidified its position as a regional environmental services provider.
