Founded in 1960 by Rudy Gerbus and his brother, Gerbus Bros Construction initially specialized in mass earth moving. In the 1970s, our expertise led us to partner with local power plants to address the environmental challenges of fly ash management. This collaboration gave birth to Trans Ash.

At Trans Ash, we are committed to providing innovative and environmentally responsible solutions for handling fly ash. We specialize in creating lined landfills that safely contain processed ash, ensuring the highest standards of environmental safety for our energy clients.
