Case Study
The City of Philadelphia
The Challenge
The City of Philadelphia faced the challenge of keeping busy commercial corridors clean and litter free. The city center, with its millions of residents, professionals, and tourists, generated a significant amount of waste, causing traditional wire baskets to fill up quickly and overflow. The Sanitation team had to collect wire baskets 17 times per week across three shifts, resulting in over 1.5 million collections annually and incurring substantial operating costs.
The Solution
Philadelphia quickly became the national leader in adopting smart waste and recycling. The city’s Sanitation department significantly decreased collection frequency from 17 times to just 3 times per week, requiring only one crew shift daily instead of three. This resulted in substantial cost savings, and cleaner streets that are easier to maintain.
