Rumpke pitches to Ashville as village prepares to rebid trash-and-recycling contract
Summary
Rumpke representative Jake Heffron introduced his company and offered to bid on the village's forthcoming trash-and-recycling contract, citing local service centers, a three-year example rate of $20.75, truck-camera safety systems, and a willingness to provide a bid package for council review.
Jake Heffron of Rumpke addressed the council and introduced his company as a potential bidder for the village’s expiring trash-and-recycling contract. "We provided them a rate of $20.75 for the next 3 years," Heffron said, describing a recent contract Rumpke won in a nearby community as a pricing example and offering to share the bid package with Ashville.
Heffron said Rumpke’s regional operations are based in Circleville and highlighted operational features including four-facing truck cameras (a driver-scoring system the company calls the Metrodome) intended to improve safety and help resolve missed-pickup complaints. Council members asked about transition costs for businesses and homeowners; Heffron said his bid would typically include transition services at no additional cost to residents or businesses and offered to provide the village with the proposal package for review.
