Casella Waste Systems Inc., Rutland, Vermont, has announced its financial results for the first quarter of 2020. The company reported revenues were $182.9 million for the quarter, which was up $19.2 million, or 11.8 percent, from the same period in 2019. “Our solid waste pricing programs were ahead of budget as we advanced 5.2 percent pricing in the collection lineof- business and 10.1 percent pricing at the landfills, with overall solid waste price increasing by 5.8 percent,” Casella chairman and CEO John Casella said. “Solid waste volumes were down 2.7 percent in the quarter, as we continued to focus on shedding unprofitable work, advancing pricing in excess of inflation and we began to experience early negative volume impacts from COVID-19 as the shelter-in-place orders forced businesses to close and construction to come to a halt.”
