Cuyahoga County Solid Waste Management Plan Update (December 2018) Chapter 4: Waste Management <br />2. Waste Collection <br />Solid waste collection within Cuyahoga County is provided by municipal public haulers as well as <br />private haulers. Service is widely available through Cuyahoga County and competitive. <br />Residential waste is either collected by the community itself or by one of four private haulers <br />under contract with the community. The residential haulers included Kimble, Republic, Rumpke <br />and Waste Management. Figure 4'4 shows the waste collection provider for each community in <br />2016. In all., 21 communities operated their own waste collection program and 38 communities <br />contracted with private haulers for waste collection services. There were no subscription-based <br />waste collection programs. Most communities paid the entire cost of residential waste <br />collection using general fund monies. However,, some communities have begun charging <br />residents a monthly fee to recover some or all of the cost of providing the service. Eighteen out <br />of the 59 communities have some type of waste collection charge. <br />Commercial, institutional, and industrial waste is collected by numerous private haulers. These <br />haulers contract with apartment owners, retail stores hospitals and other commercial and <br />industrial establishments. The District has identified fifteen commercial solid waste haulers <br />operating within Cuyahoga County while dozens more are in the business of hauling <br />construction and demolition debris, waste from house deanouts, etc. The largest haulers, <br />Kimble, Republic., Rumpke and Waste Management own their own systems of transfer stations <br />and landfills. <br />����~ <br />
