US: Fido, a trash valet solution for short-term rental property owners and managers formerly known as Trash Caddies, has expanded its services by announcing the acquisition of Charlotte-based bin-to-curb trash valet provider, BinBettr.
Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. It represents Fido’s second purchase in recent months, having bought Phoenix-based competitor Ragin’ Raccoon in September.
Fido CEO Justin Pera said: “It was like acquiring an earlier version of ourselves. Fido’s first service was the same as BinBettr’s—making sure trash bins were out the night before collection and back the next day. As we grew, we saw even more ways to provide value to our customers.
“This acquisition allows us to bring those additional services to a key market where customer-centric standards are already in place,” he added.
Founded in 2022, Fido offers monthly maintenance inspections, pre- and post-stay inspections, and on-demand junk removal, as well as its core “bin-to-curb” service. The company expects to launch more services in 2025.
Pera continued: “North Carolina is a fantastic market for short-term rentals, and we’re excited to bring our expertise and innovative approach to support property managers across the state.”
