Allied Waste Industries, Inc. today announced the completion of a lease for the relocation of its corporate headquarters to Phoenix from its current location in North Scottsdale. The new 150,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art facility located at 6969 E. Mayo Blvd. will serve as the main operations support center for the entire organization.

The new building is located just west of the southwest corner of Loop 101 and Scottsdale Road within the Chauncey Ranch development. Construction is expected to be completed in April, with tenant improvements beginning shortly thereafter. Allied Waste plans to relocate later this year.

Allied Waste would like to acknowledge several individuals who were instrumental in assisting them with their relocation including:

"We want to extend a warm welcome to Allied Waste, a premier Fortune 500 employer," said Phoenix City Councilwoman Peggy Neely, District 2. "We are proud to have such a respected corporation call Phoenix home and I look forward to working with Allied as a new partner in our community."
