You should be benchmarking pricing and services regularly, assuming your provider is looking after you can be a major cost over time.
Thinking it’s all about beating up your supplier on rates, there are so many other angles. Putting your recycling such as cardboard in general waste bin will cost you up to 7 times the cost of recycling.
