The company has an enormous fleet of trucks in Canada and the U.S., the trucks are mostly front loader with some rear loaders and side loaders. Today the company's website is still up but the company is defunct after merging in 2010.

Merger

On June 30, 2010 the company agreed to merge into BFI Canada. Three weeks later, the company began rebranding as BFI Canada, and the company was dissolved in Canada three months later. In the U.S., however, the company was rebranded as Progressive Waste Solutions because the BFI Canada brand name is still in use in the U.S. following its 2000 acquisition by Progressive Waste Solutions.
