In the Summer of 2025, Southern Elevator Purchased Priority Elevator, based out of Richmond, Virginia, was purchased in the Summer of 2025 by Southern Elevator. This merger was one of purpose, as Priority Elevator shared the same values in quality maintenance and customer relationships as Southern, and Priority Elevator has earned a stellar reputation in the State of Virginia where it primarily operates. Priority Elevator is registered with the Commonwealth of Virginia as a Class ‘A’ Elevator Contractor and employs elevator technicians who are members in Local #51 and #52 of the IEUC. This partnership with Priority Elevator has positioned Southern Elevator Company as one of the largest, if not the largest, Regional Union Elevator Company in the Mid-Atlantic.
