“Refuse Specialists’ deal structure is simple, effective and has no down side. Equity
Lifestyle Properties appreciates contracts that are less than 5 pages, saves us north
of 25% on our trash bills and doesn’t cost us any time/money.” -Lance Beatch, VP of
Acquisitions, Equity LifeStyle Properties
““I would definitely recommend
Refuse Specialists! We were
concerned that enrollment could be time
consuming and difficult and ongoing
oversight of the program potentially
onerous, but RS delivers as promised.
The program is relatively painless to
roll-out, requires very little oversight and
involvement on our part, and best of all it
saved our properties more than 30%! “”
-Greg Grainger, Regional Managing
Director, Colliers International
“I told Refuse Specialists I could not
devote much time to the subject and
to my surprise it didn’t require a much time
at all. Refuse Specialists provided me with
a simple one page contract; we reviewed it,
made some minor changes and signed it.
Following we sent them a property list and
had our accounts payable manager send
the hauling invoices. From there, Shelly
Binnette and her staff did all the work. Now
the only thing to do is enjoy the savings
which are detailed in periodic reports.”

Operations, Retirement

Deal Overview
1Savings for our clients typically range from 30%-50%. Refuse Specialists charges no fees
but simply shares the savings we create for you.
2On 90%+ of the properties, the hauler and services levels don’t change at all … The
only difference is the price goes down.
3Refuse Specialists does not wedge itself between you and your vendor. We simply act as
your agent to right-size the pricing, audit your bills monthly and create efficiencies in the
logistics that result in savings.
4Your bills are audited every month; line by line, to verify amounts, eliminate excess charges
and ensure you are experiencing the highest level of service. Following the audit your bills
are emailed to you within 24-48 hours after receipt by Refuse Specialists.

Why can’t we do it ourselves?
If you are not deeply knowledgeable about the details in the hauling industry it is impossible
to know the right questions to ask to get the pricing reduced appropriately. And if you could
do it, you would already have done it! Some of our current clients invested huge amounts of
time in an attempt to “operate on themselves” (and you know how that turns out) and were
able to negotiate some price reductions with the haulers, but nowhere near our average
savings rates of 30% to 50% portfolio wide. Just like you wouldn’t use the receptionist to
negotiate the purchase or sale of a portfolio just to avoid the commissions, you shouldn’t
attempt to become an expert in waste hauling and recycling when we will do it for you and
only share in the success of the program. If you don’t save, we don’t exist…
Should I get in a direct relationship with the Hauler?
We do not get in between you and your vendor; we represent you to ensure you
are getting the correct pricing and services. The hauler recommending a direct
relationship is similar to the IRS trying to dissuade your use of a tax attorney ... its comical!
Of course they don’t want you to hire an expert to ensure you receive the correct
pricing and preferential treatment. But, you do have a tax attorney, and similarly you should
have an expert advocating for your waste hauling needs.
Frequently Asked Questions
What if we are in a contract?
All of our clients are under contracts when they hire us. We can still help you without
breaking your existing hauler contract and 90% or more of the time we can work with
your current hauler to reduce your pricing. We do this by using a multitude of methods
including, but not limited to, using our national buying power to get the current contractual
pricing reduced during the current term, logistical improvements, service level optimization
and more. By doing an assessment of your current relationship we can ascertain the
likelihood of immediate or future savings.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will we lose control of our waste hauling services?
We offer a very unique service because you hire us as your agent to renegotiate your
contracts and then monitor your invoices. You will still have a direct relationship with
your waste haulers but in addition you will have the experts at RS watching your pricing
and service levels. You still have complete control because you sign the new waste
hauling contracts and can still call your haulers directly if a need arises.
How long are the contracts with RS and the haulers?
Our standard agreement length is five years. When we roll back prices 30-50%, and
eliminate all administrative, fuel and landfill related fees most of our clients want to lock in
those low rates for as long as possible! And 5 years is the maximum term available in the
marketplace today.
Is this worth my time?
Most clients experience a savings rate of 30% to 50% within 45 to 60 days after
entering the program. Where else can you invest less than two hours to drastically reduce
a common cost?
Step 1: Review the agreement with an RS representative and sign,
Step 2: Complete the Letter of Authorization and place it on your letterhead,
Step 3: Send RS a property list (with Prop Name, Address, PM Name, Contact #, # of
Doors/Lots), and
Step 4: Send RS your most recent hauling invoices for each property.
45-60 days after the four steps are done, your hauling prices are reduced by
approximately 40%.
That’s It!
