Who We Are
Common Ground Environmental, Inc. (CGE) was founded in 2003 by a group of experienced environmental consultants with more than 50 years of combined expertise in waste management and industrial services. They built the company on a foundation of hands-on fieldwork, practical solutions, and a deep understanding of environmental challenges in real-world settings.
In 2017, leadership transitioned to Michael Propst, a long-time CGE team member who had been mentored by the original founders. With over six years of experience at the company and a strong commitment to its values, Michael stepped into the role of President and has continued to guide CGE with integrity and purpose.
Today, CGE proudly serves a wide range of clients — from Fortune 500 companies and government agencies to manufacturers, labs, and local businesses — offering reliable waste removal, industrial cleaning, and environmental support tailored to each client’s needs.
