Why it matters
Private equity-backed Momentum Environmental acquired Corbett Industrial Cleaning Services. The deal advances Momentum’s goal to be a vertically integrated leader in environmental services and non-hazardous waste in the U.S. Northeast.
Momentum was co-founded in 2024 by Bill Hunter, who is the company’s CEO. It operates with a fleet of 152 vehicles based in seven locations across New York state that extend into neighboring states. The company also owns two centralized wastewater treatment plants with solidification pits and infrastructure for managing solids, as well as a soil recycling facility.
Hunter said Momentum’s current service footprint spans from Erie, Pennsylvania, to Worcester, Massachusetts. Its acquisition of Corbett densifies its services in the eastern portion of its existing footprint. That’s by design — Hunter said he sees abundant opportunity for growth in New England.
