A <br />comprehensive routing and technology study has not been performed for the Town. Similarly, <br />neither the Town nor any consultants has employed collections routing software to evaluate the <br />Town’s collection patterns. <br />2.2.2.2 Commercial Collections <br />Commercial collections contracted by customers throughout the Town are routed according to <br />the customers’ locations, waste disposal volumes, and requested frequency of collection. The <br />Town’s commercial fleet collects 5 days per week on these established routes and schedule. <br />Additional locations and container collections are worked into the schedule on and an as-needed <br />basis. <br />Similar to residential collections the Town has tracked the labor effort associated with each <br />commercial collection vehicle. Commercial collections average approximately 5 hours per <br />collection day per vehicle.
