New offices in Grand Rapids, Toledo, Richmond, Charlotte, and Tampa strengthen Patriot’s nationwide reach and customer support

Patriot Environmental Services, a Crystal Clean company, and a leader in environmental and industrial services, has expanded its nationwide footprint with the strategic addition of five locations in the Midwest and Eastern U.S. The offices in Grand Rapids, MI; Toledo, OH; Richmond, VA; Charlotte, NC; and Tampa, FL extend Patriot’s capabilities and strengthen customer support across the Midwest and Southeast. This strategic expansion reinforces Patriot’s mission to deliver safe, compliant, and responsive solutions to customers across a broad range of industries.

“Since Patriot became part of Crystal Clean in 2022, our team has been excited to bring their footprint to the nationwide stage,” said Crystal Clean President and CEO Brian Recatto. “This strategic expansion allows our customers located in the Midwest and Southeast U.S. to experience Patriot’s reputation for first-class industrial services and emergency response capabilities. Combining Patriot’s expanded reach with Crystal Clean’s strong network of service branches and waste treatment facilities positions us as a single-source provider customers can rely on for environmental and industrial services nationwide.”

Through the Grand Rapids, MI facility, Patriot will leverage bulk liquid waste logistics and industrial and field services capabilities to better serve customers in the Midwest. Tyler Gilbert serves as Branch Operations Manager, overseeing local operations and leading service delivery in this key market.

A new office in Toledo, OH, serves as an important hub for expanding service across Ohio and surrounding states. The office is led by Bill Cedoz, Branch Operations Manager, who has more than 30 years of industrial and environmental experience. Cedoz’s leadership ensures the Toledo branch is well positioned to meet customers’ needs for specialized waste management and industrial services, backed by Patriot’s nationwide resources.

Patriot also highlights its offices in Richmond, VA; Charlotte, NC; and Tampa, FL which began operations in 2023 and 2024.

“Each of these offices provides local access to Patriot’s core services, including emergency response, hazardous and non-hazardous waste management, remediation, and industrial field services,” said Shawn Ball, Senior Vice President – Industrial Services. “Together with Grand Rapids and Toledo, these offices significantly enhance Patriot’s ability to deliver timely, compliant, and customer-focused support to industrial and commercial clients across the eastern United States.”

With the addition of these five locations, Patriot operates 23 offices nationwide. This growth reflects the company’s commitment to serving both existing and new customers, ensuring that industrial facilities, utilities, municipalities, and other organizations have access to responsive environmental solutions wherever they operate.
