Roadrunner Rubbish Case Study

Decent Essays
It was just brought to my attention that the Hauler (Roadrunner Rubbish Removal) for Walmart Store #1369 is requiring for this stores compactor to be hauled every 7 days. This Walmart is located in a very rural area that being said Roadrunner Rubbish the only hauler in town. The hauler has stated this legal weight limit is 6 tons. The hauler is basing this off Federal Bridge Laws (Please see attachment). The hauler is requesting that the waste in the container not weigh more than 6-6.5 tons + the weight of the compactor (Average weight of 3.5 ton). This would then be a combined total of 10 tons. Placing this store on a 7 day schedule would keep this store right at requested weight based on this store tonnage history.

    For a team nicknamed the Ramblin’ Wreck, the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets sure do live up to the mantra. That may not sure this season, but the Yellow Jackets have wrecked the Pitt Panthers in their last two meetings.
