30 gallon service <br />= $24.63 <br />60 gallon service <br />= $28.50 <br />90 gallon service <br />= $30.46 <br />The average organized city rates from Table 4-3 are: <br />30 gallon service <br />= $14.76 <br />60 gallon service <br />= $17.33 <br />90 gallon service <br />= $23.83 <br />Subtracting each of the respective averages yields the following differences: <br />30 gallon service = <br />$9.87 <br />60 gallon service = <br />$11.17 <br />90 gallon service = <br />$6.63 <br />Average difference <br />= $9.22 <br />There were 61,039 households reported to have MSW collection service in St. Paul. Applying <br />the average difference per household per month of $9.22 yields a projected annual difference of <br />over $6 million. This is a rough estimate due to the general nature of the billing survey. <br />Nevertheless, the annual difference in costs for just St. Paul households appears to be well into <br />the millions of dollars in savings. <br />The average amount paid to the hauler as shown in Table 4-4 was determined by subtracting <br />taxes and county fees from the total amount charged to residents. <br />One resident who uses Hauler H for garbage collection pays $16.00 per month for the 30 gallon <br />container service. Another resident who uses Hauler K pays $41.00 per month for the 30 gallon <br />container service. Table 4-5 shows a range of a random sample of monthly rates charged to <br />residents for MSW collection services from each hauler that operates St. Paul. These rates <br />include taxes, solid waste fees and surcharges paid to the haulers as provided by the participants. <br />The monthly rates in Table 4-5 do not include the $2.25 that is charged each month for recycling <br />collection. <br />R - Analysis of Waste Collection Service Arrangements.doc Foth Infrastructure & Environment, LLC • 93 <br />June 2009 <br />
