Charge for overweight bins when they say they won't unless it is happening consistently.

Thanks for feedback. We seek to avoid overweight fees for general waste when possible and absorb smaller or irregular excess weights - which are a real cost to our business.

If we feel it makes financial sense for customers to move to a higher weight class we discuss this with them. In many instances - irregular over-weights on certain bins - i.e if they are overweight only every once in a while makes better sense.

For this client - in January 2024 - each general waste bin was overweight by 18% on average (every bin was overweight) - and Feb - each general waste bin was overweight by 37% on average - with each pick up being overweight.

In Mar 2024 we did not charge any over-weights as the average excess weight was 4% - and we absorbed this real disposal cost.

We note that in metro Sydney - general waste disposal costs are over $300 per tonne given State levy increases- so excess weights are a real cost to us.

We seek to be as open and honest as possible with clients regarding excess weights - as we seek to minimise costs for clients as much as possible.

We seek to keep costs as low as possible and so quote based on a set weight class for potential customers.

We welcome opportunity to discuss these issues with clients - and see can we reduce costs through recycling more - or by adjusting weight classes.

We also note that this client has cancelled with us - and bins are removed. We still have overdue invoices from March.

Waster is a Breath of Fresh Air in Waste Service

Waster is the best way to manage waste disposal for businesses. Uncomplicated prices published online, no lock-in contracts, affordable rates and no hidden fees. We experienced straight forward, hassle-free registration and initiation of service. And, 3 months of collection so far without a hitch. It's a great set up and a hugh difference to the waste industry mafia and their 3 year 'no cancel, for any reason' contracts.

Pure Joy to say the least

Waster has taken extra steps to ensure our experience of changing to Waster has no interruptions. With affordable pricing and efficient communication (including the use of an app that allows you to book extra pickup) is a pure joy to say the least. Thank you Waster.
