Sanivac strengthens its presence in the Laurentians with the acquisition of Paco Transport

On October 6, Sanivac reached another significant milestone in its growth by acquiring Paco Transport, a well-established company in the Laurentians region, known for its reliable container rental service.

This acquisition consolidates Sanivac’s presence in this key sector, while reinforcing its commitment to offering fast, efficient, and local service to residential, commercial, and industrial clients.

A Strengthened Presence in the Laurentians

For over 25 years, Paco Transport has built a solid reputation in the Saint-Jérôme region thanks to the quality of its service and its trusting relationship with local clientele.

For Sanivac, this acquisition is part of a sustainable regional growth strategy aimed at better serving entrepreneurs, individuals, and municipalities in the Laurentians.

“By integrating Paco Transport into Sanivac, we are moving even closer to our customers. This union allows us to offer the same recognized container service, with increased capacity and an even stronger local presence.” – Vincent Kelly, CEO of Sanivac Group

An Expanded Offering in the Container Rental Sector

With this acquisition, Sanivac expands its network and operational capacity in the container rental sector, while maintaining the same philosophy of personalized and human service. Paco Transport’s clients will continue to benefit from the same reliable and flexible services, but will now benefit from the logistical support, extended fleet, and operational efficiency of the Sanivac Group.

The objective is simple: to offer an even smoother customer experience, with optimized delivery times, strengthened regional coverage, and an expanded container inventory.

Paco Transport: A Company Merged with Sanivac

Paco Transport officially becomes a company linked to Sanivac, exclusively dedicated to container rental for construction, renovation, and industrial projects. This structure allows for the preservation of Paco’s local identity, while benefiting from the strength of a large group.

Clients will therefore continue to recognize the Paco Transport name in the Laurentians, but with the assurance of an even stronger service, supported by Sanivac’s rigor and reputation. “Paco Transport is a respected company in its region, with values very close to ours: efficiency, reliability, and proximity. We are proud to continue its story by adding our expertise and our ability to grow together.” – David Kelly, Director of Assets and Co-owner of Sanivac Group

One Provider, Even Closer to You

Thanks to this union, clients in the Laurentians will have access to a complete container rental offering, including:

  • rental of construction containers and watertight containers from 10 to 40 yards for residential or commercial projects,
  • fast pickup and delivery of containers,
  • responsible management of construction materials,
  • and local service provided by a local team.

By combining the strengths of Sanivac and Paco, the company can now meet a larger volume of requests, while maintaining a high level of responsiveness and quality. Entrepreneurs, renovators, and individuals in the Laurentians will thus benefit from more direct access to a turnkey service for their container needs, without compromising on reliability or speed.

Shared Values and a Common Commitment

The integration of Paco Transport into the larger Sanivac family is based on a shared vision: to offer a simple, efficient, and customer-centric service. Like Sanivac, Paco Transport has distinguished itself over the years through its professionalism, rigor, and human approach.

This merger between two Quebec family businesses guarantees a smooth transition, respecting local expertise and regional clientele. “The Paco team knows its territory better than anyone.

Together, we will continue to serve the Laurentians with the same efficiency, proximity, and passion.” – Jean-Philippe Blain, Director of Sanivac’s Container Department

A Natural Integration for Better Service

Paco Transport employees are now joining the larger Sanivac family, where their expertise will be valued and supported by additional resources. Current clients will see no change in service quality — only additional benefits: more containers available, optimized operations, and centralized customer service.

Sanivac ensures that the transition occurs smoothly, without interruption or modification of usual services. Trucks, drivers, and contacts remain the same — but capabilities and means of action are growing.

A Key Step in Sanivac’s Growth

This year, Sanivac is investing in the development of its Container division, which is experiencing strong demand. The addition of Paco Transport thus strengthens this expertise by offering an increased presence in the Laurentians, a rapidly expanding territory.

This acquisition is part of the group’s long-term vision: to structure its network of environmental services around strong and autonomous local teams, capable of quickly responding to client needs. “Our mission remains the same: to be the trusted partner for container management on all types of job sites, from the smallest residential project to large industrial sites. And with Paco, we will be even better positioned to do so.” – Vincent Kelly, CEO of Sanivac Group

In conclusion

With the acquisition of Paco Transport, Sanivac strengthens its presence in the Laurentians and expands its offering in the container rental sector. This union will combine the best of both companies: the strength of a large network and the proximity of a local service.

Clients can continue to rely on the same team, the same faces, and the same reliability — with even more resources to meet their needs. One provider, even closer to you. Welcome to the entire Paco Transport team in the larger Sanivac family! 🙌
