In Pennsylvania, public sector contracts
are awarded pursuant to a competitive bidding process to assure that qualified
companies are providing the required services and to assure that public
entities are receiving quality, cost-efficient services.
Local
solid waste service company J. P. Mascaro & Sons has a demonstrated history
of successfully procuring and performing public sector contracts that are
competitively bid and awarded. In 2016,
Mascaro is experiencing record growth in its public sector contract business.
Just
recently, the Mascaro company has been awarded in excess of $15 million in new
public sector contracts, including contracts with the Boroughs of Exeter,
Media, West Conshohocken and Old Forge, and with Plainfield Township, the City
of Camden, and the Philadelphia School District.
Speaking
to the new contract awards, company President, Pat Mascaro, said, “Our company
has been extremely successful in being awarded public sector contracts because
we own and operate our own DEP-permitted transfer stations, landfills, and
recycling facilities; we have unmatched experience in providing required public
sector waste services; we have a modern fleet of collection and transportation
vehicles and equipment; and we have highly qualified and dedicated management
and line employees. This winning
combination enables our company to be successful on a large number of the
public sector contracts we bid on, and to provide municipalities and other
public sector customers with the highest quality service at a reasonable cost,”
added Mascaro.
Starting
out as a one-truck operation in 1964, J. P. Mascaro & Sons over the last 52
years has grown into a waste industry leader which competes successfully with
the large national public companies, but which has the dedication and
commitment of a private local business.
To get where it is today, and to better serve existing customers and
procure new customers, Mascaro has made an unparalleled financial and
operational commitment to developing company-owned and operated infrastructure
that includes four DEP-permitted landfills, three DEP-permitted transfer
stations, the largest DEP beneficial use compost facility in Pennsylvania,
three recycling centers, 17 operating divisions, and a modern fleet of waste
collection and transportation vehicles and waste service containers.
Mascaro’s
latest addition to its impressive facility infrastructure, which makes the
company fully-integrated and self-sustaining, is its new multi-million dollar
75,000 square foot single stream recycling center, operated by company
affiliate, TotalRecycle, Inc., in Exeter Township, Berks County, immediately
adjacent to Mascaro’s Pioneer Crossing Landfill.
Up
and coming at the TotalRecycle site, and demonstrating Mascaro’s continued
commitment to improving company infrastructure, is a fully-enclosed large scale
“recycling drop-off center” which will be open to the public and to regional
area businesses and industries. This
15,000 square foot drop-off facility building will be “one-of-a-kind in the
industry” and will open in October 2016.
“Through
the hard work of our dedicated employees and the development of company
infrastructure, J. P. Mascaro & Sons continues to expand its public sector
customer base year after year, and I fully expect that our company’s success in
this area of our business will continue,” said Mascaro.
