There is one particular "outlier" of note —included in the table above. A resident reported paying $7.35 per month ($2.25 per month for recycling, brings the total to $9.60 per month). In follow- up, this resident noted he had a "teaser rate" which will increase next year. Often MSW haulers work in several cities around Minnesota. The hauler likely charges different rates to residents of different cities for the same basic services. Table 3-5 summarizes the differences in rates charged to residential customers by one hauler, who operates in different cities. Differences can be attributed to many variables such as economies of scale (more stops reduce cost per household), differences in tipping fees, and even whether the hauler pays the tipping fee or the city pays it directly, different hauling distances, different related services built into monthly rates/versus separate rates for services such as bulky waste pick-up. 54 •Foth Infrastructure & Environment, LLC R - Analysis of Waste Collection Service Arrangements.doc June 2009
