Retirement Group Saves 22% Annually on Waste Disposal Expenses
Imagine being able to save your company $25,000. Actually, scratch that. Imagine being able to save your company a total of $100,000 over four years. You’d feel pretty good about that, right?
Rhonda Cummons, the controller of Presbyterian Homes, did exactly that. She wanted to solve her waste problems and save, so she reached out to us. As a result, she is saving 22% annually on her waste expenses.
Rhonda had three keys to success:
1. She agreed to a detailed audit
WCI audits are exhaustive - we leave no rock unturned. In the end, Presbyterian knew not only where they were overspending, but what actions they could take to quickly remedy it.
2. She approved our recommendations
Our thorough audit process revealed that Presbyterian Homes was overspending was by being over-serviced. We showed Rhonda how much she could save by cutting back on pick-up frequency, then we negotiated the change with the hauler. 70% of our clients’ sites are being serviced too frequently, so this is not an uncommon finding for us.
3. She approved contract changes.
Like most other companies out there, Presbyterian was paying ancillary fees - and they didn’t have to. After walking Rhonda through the contract process, we eliminated every additional fee on their contract. Going forward, our contract oversight will ensure that fair rates are maintained and that service issues are quickly resolved.
