Hambley said Medina County staff have evidence that on six occasions Kimble trucks were observed and photographed not delivering municipal solid waste to the county transfer station in Westfield Township, instead unloading elsewhere. He said two of the trucks were seen in the City of Brunswick and others in Medina Township and Brunswick Hills. Hambley noted the county tipping fee of $55 per ton equates to roughly $350–$550 per truck in lost revenue and cautioned civil penalties for flow-control violations can reach $5,000 per day.
