CAN DO recently sold an 8.18-acre site in the McAdoo Industrial Park to Forrester Environmental, a professional remediation services company, for the expansion of their operations.
Founded in 2001, Forrester Environmental removes particles such as asbestos, mold and lead from buildings and provides floor preparation and select demolition services. The Bloomsburg-based company is currently leasing a building and was looking to own its facility. The McAdoo Industrial Park site will allow the company to expand operations and construct an 8,000-square foot building.

Industries thrive in Greater Hazleton’s Humboldt Industrial Park because of the area’s competitive operating costs and strategic location near the crossroads of Interstates 80 and 81. Another added benefit is immediate access to the quality railroad system that runs directly through several sections of the 3,000-acre park.
When Reading Blue Mountain & Northern Railroad (RBMN) took over rail service in CAN DO’s Humboldt Industrial Park on January 1, companies in Greater Hazleton immediately saw the benefits they would receive from the rail carrier’s personalized service and quality access to rail transportation for their goods and services.
