Our Mission 

It's our core

Caglia Environmental is a locally family-owned company focused on providing exceptional customer service with engaged employees, ethics and integrity. The Caglia family’s decades of success has inspired them to give back through partnerships with philanthropic organizations located in the Central Valley communities they serve. Caglia Environmental truly believes that safety should not be solely viewed or stated as a priority, but rather as a core value. Priorities of work or activities can change over time, even on short notice, but values never change. Creating and sustaining a safe workplace and ensuring safe work practices are firmly centered in our mission and our values.

OUR HISTORY

Valley Grown for Over 80 Years

Family History

The founder of the Caglia family of companies, Frank S. Caglia, was born in 1912 in the modest village of Maschito, Italy. Just as thousands of immigrants following their dreams and seeking a better life in the United States, Frank stood on the windblown deck of a ship with his parents and younger siblings, saw the welcoming arms of Lady Liberty, and passed through the gates of Ellis Island. Eager to begin its new life in America, the Caglia family settled in Fresno, working diligently to make ends meet. Frank’s drive, ambition, and strong work ethic motivated him to strive for success at a young age and ultimately led to great business accomplishments. His success fueled his appreciation of his new home town of Fresno, inspiring Frank Caglia to give back to the Fresno and Clovis communities. Following in Frank’s footsteps, generations of the Caglia family continue to spearhead philanthropic projects in greater Fresno and the San Joaquin Valley.

Electric Motor Shop

Industrious and motivated, young Frank worked hard to help his parents and family. At the age of 12, Frank began working at the Electric Motor Shop, sweeping, cleaning, listening and learning the business as he worked. As a young man, he began buying ownership interests in the shop and when the original owners retired, Frank purchased the remaining shares of the business. Under Frank’s leadership and with his entrepreneurial spirit, the business prospered. Dick Caglia, Frank’s son, has been the general manager of Electric Motor Shop for the last 30 years. Frank’s daughter, Sally, is executive administrator for Caglia Enterprises. Three of Frank’s grandchildren are the next generation of the Caglia family to work at Electric Motor Shop. A family-managed business, Electric Motor Shop is a valley landmark: a premier electrical contractor and electrical supply wholesale house.

Orange Avenue Landfill

Frank Caglia’s father-in-law bought the old city landfill from Rossi Disposal Service in 1939. In 1941, Frank purchased the landfill from him and renamed it the Orange Avenue Landfill. From those early days, the Caglia family championed environmentally sound practices like recycling, offering inexpensive and convenient disposal of trash and recycling materials for greater Fresno County businesses and residents. Orange Avenue Disposal always participated in the Keep America Beautiful campaign and championed services to keep Fresno clean of trash as part of the Fresno Beautiful campaign in the 1960’s. Frank’s eldest son Joe managed the landfill for optimum trash disposal and recycling in the seventies and eighties. Frank’s son Vince was the General Manager for the last 17 years of the landfill’s operations until it was closed in 2008. It will be maintained in post-closure care by the Caglia family for over 30 years.
