Council Member Abreu asks about the types of buildings that typically use off-street containers and loading docks for refuse collection. Commissioner Tisch explains that these are primarily used by very large commercial and residential properties or those in campus-type settings.

  • Large commercial and residential properties use off-street containers
  • Off-street collection often part of initial building design
  • Proper infrastructure (loading docks) installed during construction

They use off street containers, such as dumpsters or compactors if they're loading docks.

For these properties, the off street collection is most often part of the initial design of a building or campus so that the proper infrastructure, I e, the loading dock, can be put in place at the time of construction.
