As a result of MSW Consultants' professional expertise and their ability to deal effectively with the general public and elected officials, Liberty County's solid waste financial performance has gone from an annual deficit of over $600,000 to a net annual surplus, placing the County on firm footing to plan and implement future program improvements to better serve our customers.

In a time of financial shortfalls and increasingly limited local disposal capacity, [MSW Consultants principal] John Culbertson provided us with an excellent overview of long term waste disposal options and performed the detailed analysis needed to create a system benefit charge that will place Frederick County's solid waste system on firm financial footing. Equally important, John helped us present the results of the analysis to the County Commissioners in a clear and concise manner.

MSW's staff were professional, responsive, and thorough in their efforts. Their ability to communicate effectively with all levels of the City government, including city management, public works management, legal counsel, union representatives, and operations staff, greatly enhanced the acceptance of their work. I would work with MSW Consultants again in the future, and highly recommend them to any local government needing to improve operations or cut unnecessary costs.
- Brian Morgan, Esq., Former Corporation Counsel, City of Poughkeepsie
I want to thank you again for the excellent work you and your team provided on behalf of the Department in undertaking the Iowa Statewide Waste Characterization Study...I have received positive comments from Iowa's solid waste management community and the participating landfills and transfer stations in particular.
- Tom Anderson, Executive Officer II, Iowa Department of Natural Resources, Land Quality Bureau
With his extensive waste management industry expertise, [MSW Consultants President] Walt Davenport developed a methodology and implemented a system that has enabled us to equitably provide waste management and recycling access to tenants with an equitable charge-back structure across our twelve-mall portfolio. Walt clearly possesses the operational and financial know-how to solve out-of-the-ordinary waste management needs such as ours.
- Deb Tageson, Manager Retail Operations Manager, King of Prussia Mall (PA)
MSW Consultants was diligent in representing the County to ensure funds would be available for the next ten years to sustain County initiated integrated waste management programs. I highly recommend MSW Consultants...as the were very conscious of our needs and I trust they would be for any client.
- Duane Dellecker, Director, Carbon County Dept. of Solid Waste
If you haven't had your waste sort yet let me assure you it is painless. Susan and Cynthia were here this morning, set up and quickly sorted the waste, tore down, cleaned up and were out in less than 90 minutes. All I had to do was open the door and let them in. I am looking forward to seeing the results!
- Jenny Kedward, Environmental Specialist - Dakota County
The City operates automated collection of residential and commercial refuse, curb-sorted residential recyclables collection and manual green waste collection along with a Transfer Station, Compost Facility and Material Recovery Facility. Their recycling and recovery operations also encompass two manned citizen recycling drop-off centers and have been conducting elongated pilots for commercial glass collection and commercial organics collection. The residential rates are volume-based to encourage use of the recycling program. The City recently constructed a LEED-certified administration facility adjacent to the transfer station. Fayetteville has been growing at a pace that is capping out permitted tonnage allowed at the transfer station the past couple years. MSW Consultants was hired to conduct a Rate Study to determine current costs of providing the service considering the growth of the community and demand on City resources, including identifying costs of the developing programs and utility needs. A comprehensive solid waste cost of service and rate study in underway. Facility operations, asset assessments and route observations were conducted along with an extensive review of historical and current data. Financial planning and rate modeling were conducted to ensure future revenue sufficiency for the growing utility. The final rate study report can be found on the City's website.
