Recology Is Changing its Rate Structure

What is the Zero Waste Rate Structure?

Customer refuse rates have been traditionally based solely on the black bin and what goes to landfill. As San Francisco moves closer to its goal of Zero Waste by 2020 and the need for the black bin shrinks, the rate system must reflect the total cost of service, not just the black bin. The proposed Zero Waste Rate Structure, submitted last December, supports the City’s Zero Waste goal in the following ways:

  • Maintains quality refuse and recycling collection service
  • Supports over 30 recycling and composting programs
  • Ensures sustainable revenue to advance Zero Waste programs and initiatives
  • Increases incentives for customers to recycle and compost
  • Adjusts rates to focus on the total cost of service (blue, green, black) instead of just one bin (black)
  • Supports programs that remove recyclable or organic materials from the black bin waste stream
