Right-sizing
Paying for air is the most common overcharge
Containers that leave half-empty, or pickups scheduled more often than you need, add up fast. We match container size and frequency to your actual volume.
| Container | Common sizes | Typically used for |
|---|---|---|
| Front-load dumpster | 2, 4, 6, 8 yd | Ongoing trash and recycling at offices, stores and restaurants |
| Roll-off container | 10, 20, 30, 40 yd | Cleanouts, renovations, construction debris and large one-time jobs |
| Compactor | Sized to site | High-volume sites such as manufacturing, distribution and large retail |
| Totes and carts | 64–96 gal | Small generators, medical sharps, hazardous materials and specialty recycling |

Illustrative example of the charges we flag.
Invoice audit
1 in 4 invoices has a pricing error
We audit every invoice for errors and overcharges: incorrect base rates, fuel and environmental fees, a misapplied annual price increase, recycling contamination fees, or charges for waste sticking up above the lid.
We dispute these charges on your behalf. Every billing error we find, dispute and overturn is credited back to you 100%, on your next invoice. We also review past invoices for refunds and credits.
Rate increase protection
As part of our hauler negotiations, we limit your yearly rate increase to no more than 5%. Haulers historically try to pass along 10–35%. We stop those excessive increases as part of our managed program.
Analytics and reporting (ESG, sustainability)
We provide the custom reports you need, including landfill diversion, compactor and roll-off weight analysis, waste spend by category, and year-over-year waste expenditure. If the metric can be captured, we can report it back to you.
No risk. Only reward.
Zero cost to you. Send your latest invoice and see your savings in 48–72 hours.
