A report by the Alliance for Greater New York determined that the city's 2,000-plus garbage collectors often have routes that intersect each other. The report suggests reducing the number of trash-collecting companies and improving environmental standards. The report also found that the city could recycle or compost more than 90% of commercial waste, although the current rate is only at 40%. This means that of the 3.2 million tons of commercial waste generated each year, 2 million tons are buried in landfills or burned in incinerators
So what can explain this inefficiency in New York City? There is intense competition between trash collectors, often the first thing that they sacrifice is wages and safety standards. For more information on the report and possible solutions please visit
