Source Separation – Two Bag (wet/dry)
Advantages
 efficient single-pass collection (lower collection costs)
 the production of compost;
 the stabilization of Wet waste residue;
 the inability to hide unacceptable wastes (e.g. HHW, yard waste)
in transparent bags.
 compost carts not required
 less education of the public required (sorting is simpler)
 control of recovery rates occurs at the facility instead of in the
home or curb, providing the flexibility to respond to market
demands

At the Curb
• Curb side Collection
– Municipalities responsible for collection or CRSB will do if requested
– Preferred option is to contract out
– Because of longer distances to LWMF or Regional Site larger trucks will
be required
– Two stream collection so split stream trucks required
– IC&I wastes will generally not be collected by Municipalities
– Bulk and C&D wastes will not be collected with regular household wastes
• Opportunities
– Supply of collection trucks
– Collection for residents and bussiness
– Special collection services for bulk items and C&D materials
