4 TRADITIONAL DATA TOOL: WASTE COMPOSITION STUDIES Waste Comps Looks at broad material stream across many potential diversion programs Good indicator of what can still be recovered. But Waste comps do only half the math to gauge recycling program performance Need program-level recycling data to calculate how a program is doing
5 CAPTURE RATE STUDIES Capture Rate Studies Randomized cart sampling indicates specific curbside performance, commodity level capture rates and contamination issues Trash Recyclables Recyclables Trash
6 How it Looks Like the Curbside Program is Doing Using a Traditional Recycling Rate Calculation RECYCLING RATE: Curbside versus ALL Household Material Generated LET S SAY A HOUSE HAS 800lbs RECYCLABLES lbs OTHER 2000lbs TOTAL AND 400lbs RECYCLABLES GO INTO RECYCLING 20% RECYCLING RATE 2000lbs TOTAL 6
7 How the Curbside Program is Really Doing Using Capture Rate Analysis Capture Data Shows Household Generates 800lbs RECYCLABLES 400lbs RECYCLABLES GO INTO RECYCLING 400lbs RECYCLABLES THEN GO INTO TRASH 50% 50% CAPTURE RATE CAPTURE RATE 7
8 Cart based auditing paired samples 8
9 Box truck collection to organize samples 9
