(Optional) - Quick Calculations:
The District realizes that businesses may recycle cardboard and/or mixed recycling but may not have actual weights of the cardboard and/or mixed recycling based on the style of service provided (dumpster service). The following grid is provided to estimate the amount of cardboard and mixed recycling recycled annually.

Fill in...
1. Size of your dumpster (2, 3, 4, 6, 8 or 10 cubic yard etc.)
2. How full it is when picked up on average (as a percentage)
3. Number of times the dumpster is picked up each week
4. We will do the math on our end to estimate recycling of cardboard or mixed/commingled recycling.

Space Cell	Size of Dumpster (Cubic Yards)	Average % Full When Picked Up (Estimate)	Number of Pick-ups per Week (Estimate)
Cardboard Dumpster 1	Cardboard Dumpster 1: Size of Dumpster (Cubic Yards)	Cardboard Dumpster 1: Average % Full When Picked Up (Estimate)	Cardboard Dumpster 1: Number of Pick-ups per Week (Estimate)
