Enhancing Sustainability in School Districts

Resource Synergy is dedicated to supporting school districts in their mission to create sustainable and efficient learning environments.

Our approach is designed to overcome common barriers to adopting sustainable practices, ensuring the success and longevity of these initiatives.

Waste Solutions

Proper waste management is essential for maintaining a clean and sustainable school environment. Resource Synergy offers a range of waste solutions designed to help schools effectively manage waste and minimize its environmental impact.

Dumpster Monitoring & Service Management:

Effective waste management starts with understanding waste generation patterns. By installing sonar-based sensors in each dumpster, we gain access to real-time data on waste volume and generation patterns, allowing us to accurately right-size containers and proactive manage hauling services. Districts experience the following benefits: 

  • Operational Ease: Active monitoring and dispatch across your multi-site portfolio allows us to intervene before anomalies become complaints in your inbox.
  • Savings: Resource Synergy’s optimization programs reduce your waste bill, often delivering double-digit savings.
  • Hauler Accountability: Our proprietary dispatch system and active monitoring swiftly address missed pickups and avoid extra service charges. 

Once contracted, the Resource Synergy team will install sensors in each of your sites' dumpsters, begin waste oversight and analysis, and implement the right-sizing opportunities we identify. Our innovative solution not only pays for itself but also delivers additional savings to your bottom line.

Waste Audits & Characterization:

While it’s not glamorous, “dumpster diving” is the more accurate way to identify opportunities for waste diversion and prevention. Our team is prepared to sort trash, recycling, or organics streams, analyze the data, and provide actionable insights.

Waste Reduction Strategies & Program Implementation:

Based on the data collected through waste characterization and dumpster monitoring, we develop customized waste reduction strategies and implementation plans. These strategies focus on minimizing waste at the source, improving recycling rates, diverting organics, and enhancing overall waste management practices. Our goal is to ignite action, not just write reports. We excel at implementing the developed strategies through the deployment of bins, staff & student training, and hauler management.
