Our Story

New Way Trucks and its K-PAC compactor & container brand are proud members of the central Iowa-based McLaughlin Family Companies. We are the largest privately-held refuse equipment manufacturer in North America. The organization is now in its sixth decade of operation and has been committed to innovation, safety, quality, and customer satisfaction since day one. Midwest values drive everything we do, and our people are our most valuable asset. McLaughlin Family Companies co-founder and 2009 National Waste & Recycling Association (NWRA) Hall of Fame inductee, John McLaughlin, attributes the company’s continued success to his 4 P’s: Principles, People, Products, and Persistence.

McLaughlin Family Companies acquired K-PAC's stationary and self-contained waste compactor business in 2008. K-PAC is a sister company to New Way Trucks, the cornerstone of McLaughlin Family Companies - a rapidly expanding central-Iowa and northeast-Mississippi based group of companies focused on refuse, recycling, and veterinary equipment manufacturing and retail product distribution for new and used automobiles and automotive products.
