I agree. Jbii should develop a marketing plan to partner with municipalites and take away contracts from WM and others if they will not cooperate. r

They absolutely would, especially when JBI really starts hitting the presses and people see plastic as gold.

"Why should WM be the middleman between the community and a valuable resource?"

Maybe they shouldn't, but I don't think cities and towns are going to revert to their "large government" practises of picking trash up themselves. Not after the privatization shift we've seen in the past couple of decades. Try telling conservative Wisconsin voters that they suddenly have to disband WM contracts in order grow the government! WHa?

I do think the savings will just "trickle-down" through the trash hauling and trash processing contracts. I'm just talking municipal end here. The true beauty of this company at this stage is the "low-hanging" fruit of industrial plastic.

Because WM picks up the garbage in a whole lot of places.

WM (and other private competitors) do it more efficiently than municipalities.
