Century Waste Services acquires assets from Priority First Carting to take over Staten Island waste zone contract

Type: Acquisition · Technology: Water Waste · Country: United States · Announced: 2026-06-16

Century Waste Services acquired assets from Priority First Carting on June 16, 2026, allowing Century to become the third contracted hauler in Staten Island under New York City's commercial waste zone system. This acquisition enables Century to take over Priority First's contract, which was initially awarded in 2024, and begin signing up customers on July 1. The deal significantly increases Century's footprint in Staten Island, expanding its commercial customer base in the zone to roughly 40%. Freddie Gonzalez, founder of Priority First, will retain company trademarks and its New Jersey operating license, while Century Waste Services, founded in 2002, operates a fleet of over 40 vehicles in New York and New Jersey. Academie NBD, with industry consultant Locol Waste, advised Priority First Carting on the transaction.
