Pay-as-you-throw- WI

Pay-as-you-throw curbside waste services are increasing in popularity. Many municipalities who have moved away from fixed or flat fees are seeing success with the PAYT model. Both cities and residents have enjoyed lower costs under the pay-as-you-throw system.  Municipalities are seeing an increase in recycling revenue. Residents are benefiting from a decrease in disposal costs.  

While the city of Milwaukee is aware of the PAYT strategy, it has yet to adopt it.
