North Coast Services, LLC is a provider of specialty waste handling and recycling services in New England.

Specialty waste includes but is not limited to electronics waste, televisions, monitors, universal waste lamps, batteries and latex paint products. Founded in April of 2011, our company brings an extensive knowledge of the waste and recycling industry, as well as industry connections that have fostered our initial growth. Our goal is to provide our customer base with convenient, cost effective and customer friendly service experiences.

Our model includes the bundling of services that usually require multiple vendors or have traditionally been managed through a hazardous waste hauler at significantly higher rates. North Coast Services utilizes its extensive waste experience to help customers manage these specialty wastes at a significant reduction in cost. Our customer base includes municipal transfer stations, schools and higher education, health care, environmental service companies, light industrial and many other commercial entities.

The North Coast Services sales and marketing strategy is based on a sales and support model unique to our industry. Our sales people directly service the accounts they sell. We believe this model ensures the highest level of customer service and maximizes our understanding of customer’s waste generation cycle and service needs.

From our base of operations in Portsmouth, NH, North Coast Services is uniquely positioned to provide cost-effective drop off, collection and materials management services throughout the Northeast, including Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire and Vermont. Currently, we are providing collection and consolidation services through our primary location in Portsmouth. We also manage two consolidation points, in Bangor and Scarborough, ME.
