MRc6 Waste Audit - Weight vs. Volume

We have always conducted waste audits using weight. We are seeking a more efficient means to calculating waste and recycling; is measuring the volume more efficient?

I know I read about a company doing this, but I can not seem to find who it was, or how it was done.

Separate Trash & Recycling Audits

posted by  Alexis Thompson  on 

If a project has 2 separate haulers (one for trash, and one for recycling), then is it necessary to conduct both audits at the same time?

Performance Period and this credit

Hello All, My questions touches on how this credit, in the LEED Online form, only asks for an audit date and not a performance period start and end date.

Waste Audit - Averaging?

EBOM-2009 MRc6:Solid waste management - waste stream audit
posted by  Nate Gillette  on 

Hello: the property has been tracking recyclables since 2011 in support of their ISO14001 program. So I have monthly data going back since Jan 2011. A 24-hour period does not make sense to them.
