Rising Costs of Waste Management in 2008
We all know that everything is going up. Prices have so far been becoming an issue and this covers everything from everyday needs up to that of vices we all look for today. Controlling our trash may be the next one in line considering the waste management companies may perhaps raise their prices as well since all other factors are leading up to it.
Facilities and operations costs are sure to be among the factors that need to be adjusted since by 2008, there will be added costs. For sure, all businesses will have to make the necessary adjustments. Waste management is not different from them.
(Source) Allentown residents will not pay higher property tax or water and sewer rates next year, but will pay $53 more for trash pickup.
City Council approved a 2008 budget Wednesday night that raises the garbage collection fee from $287 to $340.
The increase is needed to pay higher costs being charged to the city under its new contract with Waste Management, Mayor Ed Pawlowski told council. The fee also was increased this year, by $59, for a total increase of 49 percent over two years.
