Meridian City Council Members
FROM: Sanitary Service Inc.
DATE: June 25, 1999
SUBJECT: Briefmg Information Related to the Solid Waste Disposal Rates
Sanitary Service Company would like to address the following items at the July 6, 1999 council
meeting.
Commercial solid waste disposal rates for 8 cubic yard containers
With the conversion of the commercial accounts to a front loading system this summer there will
be eight cubic yard containers available for commercial accounts. We propose to add the
following 8 cubic yard container rates to the existing rate structure:
1 x/week
2x/week
3x/week
4x/week
5 x/we ek
6 x/we ek
$102.50/month
$1 59. 5 O/month
$212.60/month
$275.00/month
$341.50/month
$405.00/month
These rates are essentially equivalent to the current 6 cubic yard rates with the addition of the
increased disposal fees for the additional waste that is collected. This is not a rate increase or
decrease it is simply a new service that is being offered with the advent of the front loading
system.
Along with the addition of these new rates we would like to eliminate the 4 cubic yard rates and
convert 1 Y2 cubic yard rates to 2 cubic yard rates. We will have 2, 3, 6, and 8 cubic yard
containers after the conversion to the front loading system and need the billing system to match
these sizes.

Habitual Late Can Fees
There are a few residences that have a habitual problem getting their garbage cans to the curbside
by 7 :00 am. We have been gong back to these homes the next service day to collect their waste
at no additional cost to the resident. The habitual late can fee would be a charge of$5.00 per
occurrence for those residences that continually have a problem getting their waste to the curb on
time. This is not a charge that would be often used but it would provide an incentive for some
residents to get their waste out to the curbside on time. Currently there is no charge if you set
out your cans out iate.
Commercial can rate adlustment
Our current rates for commercial can service (residential sized cans at commercial businesses) is
as follows:
Ix / week 2x / week 3x / week
1-3 cans $ 14.40/mo $28.80/mo $43.20/mo
4 cans $28.80/mo $57.60/mo $86.40/mo
5 cans $36.00/mo $72.00/mo $108.00/mo
6 cans $43.20/mo $86.40/mo $129.60/mo
We would like to change the structure to be as follows:
1-3 cans
4-6 cans
7-9 cans
Ix / week
$ 14.40/mo
$28.80/mo
$36.00/mo
2x / week
$28.80/mo
$57.60/mo
$72.00/mo
3x / week
$43.20/mo
$86.40/mo
$108.00/mo
This is essentially a rate reduction for those accounts that utilize more than 5 cans per week.
Special dump fees for 6 and 8 cubic yard containers
With the conversion to a front-loading commercial solid waste collection system there will be 6
and 8 cubic yard dumpsters that will require, from time to time, extra dumps. Currently there is
an $18.00 charge to dump a 3 cubic yard dumpster each time it is dumped over and above its
scheduled service. We need to have a dump rate for 6 and 8 cubic yard containers too. We are
requesting the following rates:
6 cubic yard container
8 cubic yard container
$28.00 per dump
$36.00 per dump
(-
Compactor rates for small 4 and 6 cubic yard compactors.
Some new businesses will be installing small compactor units to reduce their frequency of
service. These compactors produce a compacted "brick" of waste that takes up more room in our
trucks than a comparable amount of noncompacted waste. Therefore, we are requesting the
following rates for .servicing small compactors:
4 cubic yard compactor
5 cubic yard compactor
6 cubic yard compactor
8 cubic yard compactor
$42.00/dump
$50.05/dump
$58.10/dump
$79. 5 O/dump
Again, this is not a rate increase or decrease it is simply a new type of service that customers are
requiring that must be addressed in the rate structure.
