Waste Stream Consultations
A free on-site audit that finds the money hiding in your waste.
Most businesses treat their waste bill like the weather. It just happens to them. It shouldn’t. Between right-sized equipment, fewer hauls, renegotiated service, and commodities you could be selling instead of paying to dump, a typical operation is leaving real money in the dumpster. A waste stream consultation finds it.
We walk your site, look at what you throw away and how, review your hauling invoices, and produce a straightforward analysis: where the volume comes from, what equipment (if any) pays for itself, what your cardboard or plastics are worth as commodities, and what your hauling schedule should look like. It is free, it takes about an hour of your time, and there is no obligation: if the honest answer is "keep your dumpsters," that is the answer you will get. Norton has been reading Mid-South waste streams since 1997; the audit is how we prove it before you spend a dollar.
How we handle it.
Hauling invoice analysis
We decode the fees, fuel surcharges, and container rents on your invoices and benchmark them against what the local market actually charges.
Volume & stream assessment
What you generate, where it comes from, and which streams compact, bale, or sell: measured on site, not guessed.
Equipment ROI math
If a compactor or baler makes sense, you get payback math built from your real volumes and current hauling rates: new and reconditioned options side by side.
Commodity revenue check
Current market context for cardboard, film, and other recyclables, and what local buyers pay for mill-size bales.
Down machine? We prioritize those calls.
