I was approached by a Resident who said "what would it take to double our recycling rate" (we're currently 1st in Hamilton Co). We ended up saying what would it take to lead the state/nation?
He suggested increasing fees, but providing easier and easier access to recycling and composting. I shared the City of Cincinnati program that uses 96gallon cans every other week as an example.
During an early Monday run I noticed about 20% of residences pull their trash to the curb! We pay a premium for this service, and it's a shame we waste it.
The question I want to answer is: would residents be willing to support front yard service if it saved them money and improved service. To that end, we need quantitative and qualitative data to figure out how to fashion trash service now to be ready for the fall.
