This pilot program was designed to test the impact of switching from a bagged system to provisioned bins. The intended outcomes of this program were to see if converting to bins would increase recycling participation rates of households and improve the quality of recycling material. The pilot program report shows, the city landfill costs from recycling efforts have been declining since 2013. This decrease might be due to an increase of more people recycling. As the city collects higher quality recycling materials it diverts trash to go to landfills, therefore, spends less on landfills costs (Northside Bin Recycling Pilot Program Report).\n\nWhat have we learned?\nThe results from the pilot program increased the recycling participation rate by 21 percent in the area where the bins were deployed. According to the study, before the pilot the participation rate was 52 percent and after the bins were distributed it increased to 73 percent. Overall, after the pilot the total participation rate was 77 percent with a combination of both blue bags and bins. The participation rate 77% with a combination of bins and blue bags recycled.","","Though the pilot program proved to increase recycling by 25% the funding is not available to continue expansion of the program and there is uncertainy of the best usage of resources.

This pilot program was executed with the goal to address and decrease the average litter collection labor hour/can/month[6] by 33 percent. This will yield to a decrease of human capital that could be allocated to higher priority tasks and improving services to residents. The city deployed Enovo Sensors that were attached to public trash cans. The sensors provided detailed data about when trash cans where full and trash should be collected.\nWhat have we learned?\nAfter installing Enovo sensors in 90 trashcans in the 5th division, data indicated that the in some areas, crews needed to be redeployed with higher frequency to collect litter. Information from sensors showed the litter hotspots that required faster deployment and those less active that needed less redeployment and fewer resources. This information allowed the Department of Public works to understand which areas should have greater attention than others within the pilot geographic area.","","For the summer of 2017, the City of Pittsburgh will be purchasing 500 trash cans with technology that will allow city crew know when they are full. \n\nThe purchase of smart trashcans will be  reducing the time it takes to service litter cans currently by about 30%-50% which would amount to at least 15,000 hours of staff time that could be redeployed to other work within the department, said DPW Director Mike Gable. \n\nGiven that the average hourly wage and benefits for employees currently performing this work is valued at approximately $30, the City would initially save nearly $450,000 worth of staff time. \n\nApproximately 1,281 litter cans with fill sensors will be deployed city-wide over the next year.","Increase the number of “smart” trash cans which send out alerts when full, making waste management more efficient and reducing litter and operational costs in business areas.","Item","sites/R4II/Lists/Roadmap_Data"],
