The current collection contract expires in January 2023, and Princeton will be soliciting bids from August through October 2022 for the new service. Based on industry information, Princeton expects that costs may rise by more than 40% for our existing service and the new service will include some changes to improve efficiency in waste collection. Princeton Council is considering changes to the service to contain escalating costs of solid waste and reduce the carbon emissions associated with it. Princeton Council is also considering the expansion of our service to include organics recycling for all households. Please review these presentations for more information.
