Quest Resource Holding (QRHC) has announced the sale of its tenant-direct portion of the RWS commercial property management business to Lincoln Waste Solutions, a Reconomy company. The transaction, completed on March 31, 2025, involves approximately $5 million in cash paid at closing, with potential additional payments up to $6.5 million based on future performance.
The strategic divestment allows Quest to focus on its core portfolio of clients across diverse industries, which offer greater growth potential and financial returns.

The sale eliminates a business segment that had contributed to inconsistent financial performance without generating profits.
