Pay-as-you-throw trash pricing
Article Abstract:
The New Hampshire Solid Waste Task Force found that one of the most successful programs initiated to both reduce generation rates and increase recycling rates was the Pay-As-You-Throw (PAYT) program. The dynamics of managing the State of New HampshireEs solid waste stream found that an increase in marginal price for solid waste disposal above and beyond the normal price of store bought garbage bags, and a pro-active approach to community planning, reduce annual per capita waste generation.
