Regional waste and recycling operator with 70+ facilities across seven states
LRS operates a vertically integrated waste, recycling, and portable services business across seven Midwest and South states with 70+ owned facilities. The tech stack is weighted heavily toward HR/payroll (ADP, Workday, Gusto, Paycom, Paycor, Paychex) and finance (Sage, QuickBooks, Coopa, Salesforce), but the hiring acceleration is concentrated in operations roles—signaling active effort to address driver safety, route optimization, and fleet efficiency. Active projects around fleet procurement strategy and accounts payable automation suggest a company scaling operational infrastructure faster than tech modernization.
