Cunningham of @BurnsMcDonnell shares two revenue models that may not seem that different, but in the recommended option the city and processor share the risks and rewards, while in the common model the processing fee tends to be underrepresented. #PPRC18

82% of US MRFs are privately owned, while the collection system is dominated by publicly operated or contracted programs. MRFs need stability and profitability; communities need stability and predictability, @RECYPartnership’s Mouw says. #PPRC18

As #recycling markets change it's important to communicate w/customers & educate them about higher costs & challenges. "We're working hard with municipal customers... to figure out how to share the risk" of curbside recycling programs. -Susan Robinson, @WasteManagement #PPRC18
