has the greatest economic, environmental, and community benefits that recycling can <br />bring to a community. <br />➢ Maximizing Environmental Benefits: Since waste reduction is the centerpiece of our <br />mission, nothing distracts Eureka Recycling from providing the best collection and <br />processing services. With no interests in garbage disposal, Eureka Recycling's central <br />goal is to increase the recovery of recyclable material by providing exceptional service to <br />our customers. Eureka Recycling is committed to demonstrating that waste is completely <br />preventable, and recycling remains our foothold on the path to our zero -waste goal. <br />➢ Creating Jobs: The jobs created by this contract and any job at Eureka Recycling <br />provides better than "living wages" with paid time off and full benefits, unlike the <br />majority of the recycling industry, which often use temporary employment. Eureka <br />Recycling has been the leader in the Twin Cities and nationally to demonstrate that it is <br />possible to operate a recycling facility and pay employees a living wage and benefits. <br />Transition <br />What is your plan for transition of operations between the current operations and the new <br />Contract operations? Describe proposed timing of these transitions including: truck <br />acquisition (if needed); personnel training for collection and customer service call center <br />staff; public notices; etc. <br />If the city of Roseville chooses to continue contracting with Eureka Recycling as outlined in this <br />proposal, there would not be a need for any major operational transitions because the program in <br />place is already running smoothly. Our team is ready to continue to provide excellent service to <br />all Roseville residents in single-family homes and apartment buildings as well as parks, city <br />buildings, and city events. <br />Planning for Multi -Unit Dwelling Recyclina Services <br />Describe your plans to assure high quality Recycling services at Multi -Unit Dwellings. <br />Include your proposed Recycling collection operations to provide adequate service levels to <br />help assure no overflow of Recyclables. Describe your specific strategies you will <br />implement to reduce contamination of Recyclables. <br />Based on our over 15 years of servicing city-wide Multi -Family recycling programs we will <br />make sure that the capacity at each property is sufficient and that overflow does not occur. We <br />will also work to increase the amount of recycling at each property by making sure carts and <br />dumpsters are conveniently located as close as possible to where residents need them to be and <br />that all residents have access to recycling education. We have staff on hand to proactively work <br />with building owners and administrators. <br />Planning for Right -Sizing of Service at All Multi -Family Properties <br />We continuously respond to requests from property managers to adjust service levels and <br />reports from drivers when accounts need additional capacity. In addition to this, at the <br />beginning of the new contract we would do an assessment of the current level of service, <br />education and container placement at each Multi -Family property. We will work to <br />assure that the location of containers is balanced between the needs of collection <br />RFP for City of Roseville Recycling Services • D-12 <br />
