Hello all,
Merry, Happy
Holy, Healthy:
We are
investigating single stream curbside recycling and would like to know the impact
on collection tonnage of converting from other systems - dual, source sep.
etc.
Is there any
evidence about which element of conversion contributes most:
Adding a
cart/switching away from bins/bags
Adding
materials
Increased
convenience in sorting
Other reasons
that tonnage might increase from this conversion
We are aware of
the downsides downstream and are taking that into account as we talk to various
MRFs
Thanks

As of January 1, any business in North Carolina that sells
alcoholic beverages for on-premises consumption will have to have a recycling
program. Need help? OR know a business that might need help in Orange County?
