Loss reaches $1.3M as green bins shunned in Waterloo Region
http://www.therecord.com/news-story/4890...oo-region/

My thoughts
- They should've started with Pay-per-use model in the first few years (instead of 10-year contract)
- More incentives!!! Easy ones are Garbage Bi-weekly pickup, or Limit # of garbage bags

It kills me to see most of my neighbours do not use Green bin at all, truly around 1/3 usage
