JP Mascaro to expand operations

Audubon, Pennsylvania-based J.P. Mascaro & Sons has announced plans to build two new transportation terminals in Pennsylvania. One terminal will be built in Franconia Township and the other in Birdsboro. Both terminals will be built close to existing Mascaro divisional operations.

“The hub of our company’s successful business operations is in the five-county Philadelphia region, and because of our recent past business growth and our anticipated future growth, the company needs to enhance and modernize its transportation division operations,” says Pat Mascaro, president of the firm. “The two new terminals that are planned will do exactly that.”

The terminal in Franconia Township will be on company-owned property adjacent to Mascaro’s waste/recycling transfer station, which is currently under construction. The new division terminal in Birdsboro will be adjacent to the company’s TotalRecycle single-stream recycling facility and Pioneer Crossing, J.P. Mascaro & Sons’ regional disposal facility.

Both terminal projects are in the design planning stage, with construction to be completed in the next two years. The total cost of the two buildings is being estimated at $7 million.

“Both of the terminals will be built with ergonomic considerations in mind to provide the best and safest work atmosphere for company employees, and both terminals will have modern offices, maintenance and storage areas, container restoration and painting bays, and efficient and environmentally contained truck washing capabilities,” states Michael Mascaro, the firm’s vice president of operations.
