Waste innovator achieves 306 percent revenue growth from 2013 to 2016
Cleveland, Ohio – Nov. 9, 2017 — Deloitte announced today that Budget Dumpster is ranked No. 288 on the 2017 Technology Fast 500™, a ranking of the 500 fastest growing technology, media, telecommunications, life sciences and energy tech companies in North America.
“We’d like to thank Deloitte for recognizing us for the second consecutive year for our advances in technology,” said John Fenn, co-founder and CEO of Budget Dumpster. “Innovation is foundational to our organization as it allows us to better serve our customers every single day.”

We extend our sincere congratulations to all the winners for achieving remarkable growth while delivering new services and experiences for their customers.”
Overall, 2017 Technology Fast 500™ companies achieved revenue growth ranging from 135 percent to 59,093 percent from 2013 to 2016, with median growth of 380 percent.
Budget Dumpster previously ranked No. 184 as a Technology Fast 500™ award winner in 2016.
