Acquisition Announcement
Goulbourn-Stittsville Sanitation
March 31, 2010
I am pleased to announce that today Tomlinson Environmental Services (TES) has acquired the assets of Goulbourn-Stittsville Sanitation (GSS). Like Tomlinson, Goulbourn Sanitation has enjoyed a long history of servicing the Ottawa-Carleton region and is locally owned. Both TES and GSS share the same philosophy of environmental innovation and protection. The acquisition of Goulbourn Sanitation will help to build on the solid foundation that has been built by Tomlinson Environmental.
Goulbourn Sanitation operates a fleet of commercial, industrial, temporary roll-off, organic, recycling and special waste service trucks. They also own and operate a Recycling Facility and Waste Transfer station at their location on Westhunt Road off Carp Road in the city's west end. These services and locations are strategically positioned relative to our current services and TES locations. With the acquisition of Goulbourn Sanitation, Tomlinson Environmental will now be better able to service customer's complete waste and recycling needs.
The Goulbourn Sanitation business will be combined with our Tomlinson Environmental Services business and will continue to be run by our own John Foley. Dave Graham, owner of Goulbourn Sanitation and his partner Steve Fournier will remain with the company during the transition period.
Please join me in welcoming the people with the "Big Gold Trucks" to the Tomlinson Group of Companies and please extend your usual cooperation and support.
Ron Tomlinson
President
