Document destruction company has new owners, new identity
DAGGETT — Country Mile Document Destruction began a new chapter with new ownership and a new name. The waste management business transitioned to second-generation owners Brad and Trina Younk and unveiled a new brand identity as Country Mile Environmental. The new name reflects the company’s broader range of services that go beyond document shredding. Country Mile Environmental securely handles regulated medical waste and provides on-site shredding and the secure destruction of confidential documents, hard drives, computer hardware and other materials. While the company trucks now sport a new logo and company name, Country Mile Environmental offers customers the same customer service they have had for 25 years. The waste management company, headquartered in Daggett, continues to be family-owned and operated by the Younk family. Roger Younk founded Country Mile Document Destruction in 2001 with a pickup truck, trailer and a mobile paper shredder. From this foundation, the company has grown into a comprehensive, certified waste management organization. Country Mile Environmental serves businesses, municipalities and individuals in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, northeast Wisconsin, and north central Wisconsin. “Our goal is to stay ahead of the curve in recycling and waste management while continuing to provide the same reliable service our customers know
