Orkin Commercial Services

The Nation’s Best Service Company

Our mission is to be the nation’s best service company. We will accomplish this goal by delivering the finest quality services and value to our customers, while being environmentally responsible.

Company Background: Founded in 1901, Atlanta-based Orkin, Inc, is a wholly owned subsidiary of Rollins, Inc (NYSE:ROL). Operating under the Orkin® and Orkin-PCO® trademarks, Orkin serves more than 1.6 million customers through more than 400 branch offices in the United States, Canada and Mexico. Forty-seven branch offices are strictly devoted to servicing our more than 250,000 commercial clients.

In 1996, Orkin expanded its Commercial Division to meet growing demand for pest management professionals trained to service food processing, healthcare, and hospitality facilities. Since that time, Orkin has become known for the best-trained professionals in the industry. Orkin’s exclusive commercial training protocol, called Acurid, requires that all Orkin technicians must complete courses from Purdue University and the American Institute of Baking to become Acurid-certified. In 2003, and again in 2004, Training magazine, the training industry’s premiere publication, recognized Orkin’s training program among its annual Top 100. The 2003 recognition included Orkin’s selection as one of the magazine’s five Editor’s Choice recipients.

Today, Orkin Commercial Services is trusted by more businesses than any other pest management provider in North America.

Environmental Commitment: Proper pest management helps create a cleaner and healthier environment. But at Orkin Commercial Services, we feel a responsibility to help keep the larger environment—the Earth—clean and protected, as well.

Orkin Commercial Services prefers using many non-chemical approaches to control pests, such as mechanical traps and sealants to prevent pests from entering and infesting your facility. We also use target-specific treatments that zero in on specific pest problems with little chance of harm to human health or the environment.

Hexagon Energy Group

Hexagon Energy Group (HEG) offers specialized energy cost-reduction services to assisted living communities in the Carolinas and surrounding states. The following steps are involved:

• HEG conducts a thorough review and analysis of energy usage and cost history. This audit will identify any overcharges or mistaken billings that might have occurred, and HEG will initiate measures to gain reimbursement, as appropriate.
• Based on the data from the audit, we identify any opportunities for continuing future cost reductions, including strategies to achieve the savings.
• Audit results, including detailed savings projections, will be supplied to appropriate management. The client alone determines whether or not to proceed further.
• If the recommended strategies are implemented, HEG will track and report the actual costs and savings on a monthly basis. Only after the savings are in the client's hands is any payment due Hexagon!

Hexagon technicians are available to meet at your convenience to explain the details of how this program can benefit your location(s). For a free, no-obligation audit, contact Hexagon at the number below.
