Ecowaste Solutions, a regional waste and recycling company operating across ten states, announced the acquisition of Adams Sanitation, completing a contiguous collection and disposal corridor stretching from the Mississippi Gulf Coast through the sugar-white beaches of the Florida Panhandle.
Founded in the 1980s and acquired by Nathan and Crystal Boyles in 2018, Adams Sanitation has grown into one of the Florida Panhandle’s most respected waste haulers. The acquisition brings approximately 100 employees and operations serving more than 29,000 customers across Santa Rosa and Okaloosa counties to Ecowaste, along with seven municipal contracts stretching from the historic county seat of Milton eastward through Crestview, the coastal communities of Fort Walton Beach and Destin, and into Georgia and North Florida.
Adams built its reputation one neighborhood at a time across Northwest Florida, from the river towns of Milton and Pace through the military communities surrounding Eglin Air Force Base and Hurlburt Field, out to the resort destinations along the Emerald Coast. The company operates approximately 40 collection vehicles with an average fleet age of just over two years.
“Adams Sanitation has built something exceptional across the Florida Panhandle: strong relationships with municipalities from Crestview to Columbia County, a young fleet, and a talented team that knows these communities inside and out,” said Chief Executive Officer Dustin Reynolds. “Following our MDI acquisition in March, Adams fills in the remaining gap across Northwest Florida and Southeast Alabama, creating a truly contiguous footprint from the Mississippi Coast through the Panhandle and into Georgia.”
“These two Gulf Coast acquisitions bring immense talent that understands how to scale operations while maintaining local relationships,” Reynolds added. “Tim Bolduc has done an exceptional job as Adams CEO, and we’re excited to have him stay on in a regional vice president role. Nathan and Crystal Boyles built deep municipal relationships across Florida over decades. That kind of local knowledge and trust doesn’t come easy.”
