The table below compares current service fees with the prices proposed by the top-ranked vendors for the same service level (2-1-1 manual collection with dual -stream recycling bins). This is essentially a "status quo" service option. RFP SERVICE OPTION #1A: Subscription, 2-1-1, dual -stream bins CURRENT % Change over Current 24`14‘(..

Manual versus Carted Collection The industry trend is toward carted solid waste collection. Utilizing carts is more efficient and reduces worker injuries. Likewise, the industry trend is toward carted collection of single -stream recyclables. In addition to the reasons above, utilizing single -stream carts also results in increased recycling participation and collection of greater quantities of recyclables. Tonnage increases of 50-100 percent have been realized by some communities. As demonstrated in the table below, pricing for carted solid waste collection ranged from a savings of $0.50 per unit (Waste Management) to an additional cost of $1.30 per unit (Waste Pro) over pricing for manual solid waste collection. The pricing for carted single -stream recycling ranges from an increase of $0.27 (Waste Management) to $1.31 (Waste Pro) over pricing for dual -stream recycling bins.

This change not only encourages recycling, but also reduces truck traffic, greenhouse gas emissions, and service fees.
