M <br />• Somewhat greater risk of injury to a Center Operator assisting with the unloading from a vehicle (if <br />needed) and placement into the container <br />• Mattresses would no longer be accepted at the Eubanks Road landfill facility <br />Estimated Annual Cost: 110,306 Initial Start -up Cost: $142,590 <br />Two (2) new 30 yard roll -off containers ($9,294), three (3) new 7'X14' trailers ($17,250), one (1) additional heavy <br />duty pickup truck ($28,071); additional hauling for disposal; signage; three (3) new staff including one (1) new <br />.50 FTE Center Operator ($26,903), one (1) new Recycling Materials Handler ($45,444) and one (1) temporary <br />Materials Handler employee ($11,628) would be required to provide oversight at the Centers and to collect and <br />haul recyclable mattresses in trailers; supplies, fuel and maintenance, uniforms, insurance, training, contribution <br />to equipment replacement reserves. The Recycling Materials Handler would be assigned other duties when not <br />managing mattresses, i.e. roll -cart delivery and repair. <br />2. Collect at Waste & Recycling Centers - Rotational Collection on Saturdays (Walnut Grove Church Road, <br />Ferguson Road, High Rock Road and Eubanks Road) — Disposal Only <br />Issues: <br />• May be confusing to residents to recall rotation schedule <br />• Disposal option only; would be operationally challenging to rotate both recycling and disposal options so <br />this option would not include mattress recycling <br />• Would expand mattress disposal service to most areas of county on a limited basis <br />• This option does not, but could continue Eubanks facility (landfill) mattress service for residents who <br />wish to recycle (for a fee or not) for additional expense <br />• Saturday will not be convenient for a portion of residents <br />• Bradshaw Quarry W &R not capable of hosting this service <br />• Loss of fees currently collected at Eubanks facility (landfill) and elimination of recycling expenses <br />Estimated Annual Cost: $21,138 <br />Initial Start -Up Costs: $13,294 <br />Two (2) new 30 yard roll -off containers ($9,294); signage and advertising; additional hauling costs <br />(fuel /maintenance); additional staff hours (possibly overtime) to haul and maintain container oversight and <br />stacking ($ 8,079) <br />3. Initiate Mattress /Box Spring Collection Service in Unincorporated Area — For a Prepaid Fee <br />Issues: <br />• Collect in unincorporated area for a prepaid fee; if no fee could be problematic to not include Towns, <br />which currently have their own mattress (bulky waste) fee based collection programs <br />• Would collect for recycling and /or disposal; deliver mattresses back to Eubanks landfill facility for <br />sortation into disposal and recyclable categories <br />• Difficult to predict how many mattresses /box springs would be collected in this manner; difficult to <br />estimate revenue as well, but fees unlikely to fully fund service <br />• Could take orders /prepayment and then schedule collection within one week or less of payment <br />• Would have to establish parameters on where mattresses would be placed for collection, i.e. not <br />entering homes or barns to collect, truck must be able to drive to within 50 feet of mattresses, etc. <br />
