Kinney Services Inc. was an American conglomerate company that existed from 1961 to 1972. Kinney Services was established as a holding company and originated from a joint venture between a funeral business and parking company. After acquiring several more funeral and cleaning businesses, the company diversified into entertainment. In 1966, Kinney Services underwent a merger with National Cleaning Contractors (founded in 1886) and changed its name to Kinney National Services and by 1972, it spun off its non-media assets to National Kinney Corporation and reorganized itself into Warner Communications.
