III. Incentive to sign up businesses: This price structure is fixed on a sliding scale based on the number of businesses recycling. For example, the first 20 businesses pay a single pickup rate. Then, the cost for all businesses are reduced with the addition of the 21st business, and reduced again for the 41st business, etc.
		7. Establish a service structure. A service structure includes the day each week that recyclable collection will be provided, the types and size of bins that will be available to each business, and whether businesses will be on an on-call or weekly collection schedule. The hauler should also be asked to provide collection data on a regular basis. 8. Finalize a contract or an agreement with the recycling service provider. 9. Work with the recycling service provider to make sure that educational materials and brochures accurately communicate the quality and quantity requirements of the program. 10. Work with the recycling service provider on how to recruit businesses. Many service providers will welcome help in recruiting businesses. Other service providers will want to visit the site themselves before signing up the business. If your hauler will let you market the program, be sure that you understand all their requirements for participating businesses. One thing to consider when recruiting businesses in pickup programs are that haulers should not and often will not walk up and down stairs with large recycling containers (which can weigh over 100 pounds when full). Step 5: Check List The Advisory Committee should inform local recycling service providers of the program plans through a Request for Information. The responses may be turned into a contract or service agreement.
				Did you develop a Request for Information? Did you send the Request to all local service providers? Did you set up an Advisory Committee meeting to evaluate the proposals received? Did you interview selected vendors? Did you establish a fee structure for the program agreeable to the service provider, the partners and some potential participating businesses? Did you finalize an agreement with the service provider?
