What Mid Valley Disposal does

Mid Valley Disposal is a privately held, family-owned solid waste and recycling company headquartered in Kerman, California, founded in 1997 and operating across California's Central Valley. The company provides residential curbside collection, commercial bin and roll-off services, and municipal/school waste management to customers in Fresno, Kings, Madera, Merced, and Tulare counties. Its service portfolio also includes recycling and organics diversion through six Material Recovery Facility (MRF) and Transfer Station locations, complemented by a value-added compost product (Kerman's Best Compost) that is CDFA Organic Input Material approved and sold in 40-lb bags, bulk, or delivery.

The business operates on a subscription-recurring collection model for residential and commercial customers, with one-time roll-off rentals serving construction, demolition, moving, and cleanout projects. Distribution is direct: a 200+ truck fleet executes scheduled curbside pickup, while customers access account management through an online portal or in-person at drop-off and bill-pay locations. The company's go-to-market emphasizes local presence and community engagement rather than digital or AI-driven customer acquisition.

Mid Valley Disposal's recent strategic moves indicate an active capacity build-out phase: the March 2024 acquisition of Granite Solid Waste expanded its geographic footprint into Eastern Fresno County and scaled headcount to roughly 400 employees, a March 2026 CalRecycle $4.5M grant is funding recycling-technology upgrades, and the June 2026 grand reopening of the expanded Fresno MRF materially increased processing capacity. Revenue is not publicly disclosed, and the company has no public listing, parent entity, or institutional investor referenced in the source data.
