If you monitor your waste management closely, guess what? You’re likely still sitting on savings.
And if you don’t monitor your waste management at all, guess what? You’re almost certainly sitting on savings.
How do we know?
In the 18 years we’ve been in business, we’ve seen both scenarios countless times.
Take Tad, for instance. He was in charge of 75 Wendy’s and had already tried to cut his waste spend - but we knew how to find $321,600 more. Scott from Landura Property Management also reached out to cut spend and we are saving him over $100,000 each year.
You’re overspending on your waste disposal management, and you don’t have to.
How?
You’re being serviced too frequently
You don’t have rate limits
You don’t have monitoring in place.
We know that 90% of companies nationwide overspend on their waste disposal - odds are you’re one of them. So one or more of these issues is already happening on your site.
Let’s take a close look at each of these.
1. Too much service
We find that about 20% of our clients are being serviced too frequently.
This means that your dumpster are being picked up when they’re not full. Any empty space in your dumpster is wasted space.
If you’re paying $400 a month for two 8 yard dumpsters that are serviced 2x/week, you could be wasting $200 of that if you actually only need service 1x/week. Multiply this by several locations, and you can see how the savings accumulates.
If you have several locations, there’s a good chance that your service levels are not accurate.
We find that haulers are often very willing to change service rates - even if our clients have just signed new service agreements or are in the middle of a contract term. It’s one way we put our industry experience at your service!
2. No rate limits
If your contract doesn’t specifically prohibit rate limits, you’re going to get hikes.
Most haulers will increase prices by 1-4 each year at a rate of up to 10%. Say you’ve employed a hauler for 4 years. At the beginning of the first year, you paid them $10,000 a month. At the end of the first you, you could be paying almost $5,000 more.
You need rate limits to avoid being price gouged.
Most haulers will charge what they can get away with. You can stop letting this happen.
We make your contracts airtight. We know what language to include to prevent hikes. And we know how to fight rate increases when they do happen.
3. No bill review
Not monitoring your waste management is costing you.
If you or your staff aren’t monitoring your waste disposal invoices, you’re not catching the errors that happen 10% of the time. And if you’re not catching the mistakes, you’re paying for them.
One of our new client came on board with a contract stipulated no regulatory fees. Guess what they were being charged month after month?
Hundreds of dollars in fees.
They had no idea. And they weren’t doing anything wrong!
