Tybee MSW tonnages increased 8 % (170.55 tons) from 2009 to 2010. Tybee Recycling tonnages increased 151% (231.98 tons) from 2009 to 2010. Tybee diverted 7 % of the MSW volume away from a landfill into a Recycling Center in 2009. Tybee diverted 14 ½ % of the MSW volume away from a landfill into a Recycling Center in 2010. A Single Stream recycling program utilizing 64 or 96 gallon carts enables the customer to roll the recycling cart to and from the curb – this convenience translates into greater participation and overall success of the program toward achieving sustainable landfill diversion goals. 14 Recycling Rewards If Tybee Island recycles 40 tons per month, we will remit to the City 25 % of material proceeds. If Tybee Island recycles 50 tons per month, we will remit to the City 50% of material proceeds. If Tybee Island recycles 75 tons per month, we will remit to the City 75 % of material proceeds.

Pratt Industries is currently paying us $5.00 per ton, but as volume increases we should be able to negotiate a higher yield. WastePro will provide monthly reports to substantiate volume. 15 16 Proudly Serving Tybee Island
