Municipal Solid Waste Market Reports
In the early 1990s, Chartwell Information Publishers began collecting and publishing the results of surveys of gate rate charged at municipal solid waste facilities.  When The Envirobiz Group Inc. took over Chartwell operations in the fall of 2005, it was determined that survey effort needed to be enhanced to provide a more representative cross-section of gate rates across the United States. The Envirobiz Group Inc. now provides much more detailed examination of state wide and interstate gate rates and trends than anytime in its history; these reports are now provided in the Chartwell Solid Waste Digest.

There are times when more detailed market data is needed than trends in average and median gate rates provided in the Chartwell Solid Waste Digest; our Municipal Solid Waste Market Reports help solid waste professionals and stakeholders with these more detail reports.  These detailed reports range in geographic area from Chartwell’s “Radius Market Report” for intrastate markets to larger geographic areas involving multiple states (or even nationwide). The Envirobiz Group can customize the geographical area to meet most any customer’s needs with the United States.

One Hundred Mile Radius Study:

Current Municipal Solid Waste Gate Rates

The most basic report package, popular with customers, is “The Hundred Mile Market Radius Report”. The report package consists of two basic elements;

  • a map showing the location of MSW facilities within the 100 mile radius
  • a Microsoft Excel Worksheet with facility information.

The standard worksheet contains contact information for each facility on the map and the municipal solid waste gates rates from the most recent Chartwell facility survey. In almost all cases, the gate rates provided on the Excel file will have been from survey work done within the past twelve months. The cost of this basic 100 Mile MSW Market Radius Report is $500 per report.

The Hundred Mile Market Radius Map is provided as a PDF file. The scale of the map can be ordered as either wall poster size or smaller report scale. The data in the Microsoft Excel Worksheet file is matched to the Map with a facility map number. The worksheet can be sorted (by the customer) through the Microsoft Excel software’s sorting functions.
Market Report Options
Option #1: County MSW Waste Coloration

The standard map comes with a neutral color background. For purposes of illustrating waste generation in the target market, the maps can be color coded with the amount of municipal solid waste estimated to be generated in each county in the target region. This county information is also available on our nationwide map of solid waste resources.

Option #2: Larger Geographical Coverage: Statewide or Interstate Regional Coverage

The state wide and interstate regional studies are basically an increase in geographical coverage from the one hundred mile radius.  The standard worksheet is the same as provided in The One Hundred Mile Radius Study. The mapping becomes more customized to the specific needs of the customer. Prices based on scope of extended coverage.

Option #3: Gate Rate Changes at Individual Facilities – Present vs. Previous Year

This option provides stakeholders with gate rate changes that have occurred between the most recent survey effort and the previous year.  The most recent year being defined as the gate rates from survey within the past twelve months verses the previous survey at the same facility (ranging from 12 to 24 months previously). The gate rates are provided in the same easy to use format so that the customer can sort the data as needed. This enhance report can be provided for individual landfills within the basic one hundred mile radius, state wide, and interstate region.

Option #4: Gate Rate Changes at Individual Facilities – Present vs. 2000

This option provides stakeholders with gate rate changes that have occurred between the most recent survey effort and the year 2000.  In as much as many facilities do not change their pricing on an annual basis, this option provides a different perspective of gate rate changes than our year to previous year comparison. The gate rates are provided in the same easy to use format so that the customer can sort the data as needed. This enhance report can be provided for individual landfills within the basic one hundred mile radius, state wide, and interstate region. Customer interested in overall average and median gate rate trends between the recent year and 2000 should consider the Chartwell Solid Waste Digest regional municipal solid waste reports.

Option #5: Analysis of Historical Gate Rates Changes – Present vs. Other Years

Chartwell began collecting gate rate prices in the early 1990s.  The scope of this effort, in terms of number of facilities surveyed, decreased over the years. In 2006, The Envirobiz Group reinvigorated the Chartwell Survey effort throughout the United States. Many of the landfills which are now annually surveyed had been irregularly surveyed in the past.

Consequently, providing historical gate rate changes requires some professional analysis and qualification of the underlying gate rate survey data.  In many cases, landfills do not annually change their prices; consequently pricing trends are best analyzed over a multiyear period. Customers with a need to examine historical pricing trends should contact us to discuss their specific needs.

As part of this report package, the customer has the option of purchasing our most analysis of gate rate trends in the state and region from our Chartwell Solid Waste Digest . These reports have analysis of the gate rate change over the past survey year and since the year 2000. The cost is $200 for each report.
