LAKELAND, FL – May 23rd, 2016 – On May 1st, Waste Pro opened its first operating location in Polk County, Florida, with the acquisition of Celebration Demolition Services (CDS). Through this acquisition, which includes CDS’ contracts and containers, Waste Pro will be providing commercial roll-off services to businesses in Greater Polk County, with plans for expansion to surrounding municipalities.
