Funding
- $12 million Series A, announced October 29, 2026. Led by Ventana. The store name 'TrashLabs' is wrong: the company is TrashLab (trashlab.com; trashlabs.com is a parked page). Announced 2026-10-29 by a company-issued Business Wire release (read via its Morningstar mirror because Business Wire returns 403 to curl). The release says 'a $12 million growth round led by early-growth equity firm Ventana' and names Bienville Capital, Harlem Capital and CreativeCo as participating existing investors. The company's homepage banner and FreightWaves both call it a Series A. Ventana is an equity firm. Axios Pro and Bizjournals returned 403. AI test: the release calls the company 'an AI-native operating system for waste haulers', and the funds go to 'agentic workflows'. Listed in the AI startup funding roster for October 26–31, 2026. Sources: TrashLab release (Business Wire via Morningstar), FreightWaves, TrashLab homepage (Series A banner).
Of the 71 Series A rounds with exactly stated amounts in dollars on Presspool's weekly rosters since September 21, 2026, TrashLab's $12 million is the 60th largest; their median is $20.7 million.
