What we have learned from auditing invoices, negotiating contracts and managing waste for a few thousand client locations. Free to read and share.
Keystone audits every client invoice and finds a pricing error on 1 in 4. This paper explains where those errors come from, the six that show up most often, and a step-by-step method for catching them.
Many businesses pay for containers that leave half empty, or compactors hauled long before they are full. This paper shows how waste service is priced, how to measure what you really generate, and how right-sizing cuts costs without hurting service.
Haulers historically try to pass along increases of 10% to 35%, or whatever they can get away with. This paper explains the contract clauses behind those increases, shows what compounding does to a five-year budget, and lists the terms that keep increases under control.
Recycling is often treated as a cost. Designed well, it reduces trash service, cuts disposal tonnage and supports sustainability goals. This paper covers where the savings come from, how to avoid contamination fees, and how to add food waste collection.
Customers, investors and leadership increasingly ask for waste and sustainability data. Most businesses have little more than a stack of invoices. This paper defines the core metrics, explains how to fill gaps in hauler data, and shows what a useful report looks like.
