Institution:

Trash Butler Company offers a doorstep trash removal from various family housing communities. Its friendly, uniformed trash butlers pick up the bagged waste and recycling at the residents’ doors and carry it to the onsite compactors or the off-site facilities. It does so up to five times in a week. The firm provides fully-insured, full-time, licensed, uniformed and bonded butlers. Its services are provided at low cost, and they are community friendly. The company was founded by a commitment to the community cleanliness as well as a commitment and desired to protect the environment. Every resident within any community creates wastes, but most of them never give a trash can a second thought, but the average citizen concerned about the environments recycles about 34.5% of his trash (Soliman Omar, 2016). The current residents expect sustainable trash services. Thus Trash Butler Company has to advertise the services it offers. The fact the Trash Butler provides green trash removal services; hence it boosts community profile and improves the life of the residents without much struggle.

Disposing of trash is always a challenging work to do, and often every manager expects to find annoying residents who need their various trash problems to be sorted. While some managers within some communities view waste removal as just another problem and expense, the ones who think strategically the process of the waste collection can have something better out it. If a business offers waste removal as an amenity with added value, it can be able to leverage profits while creating cleaner and happier community. Trash Butler Company will have to change its strategies to boost its current performance. It will have added sustainable trash-removal services like having pet waste stations, smart compactors, improved door-to-door trash collection and bulk-item pickup. Incorporating these strategies into base services of the firm will attract residents as well as increase the long-term occupancy rate. Here is an overview of the pros and cons of every service with insights.

1.    Having Pet Waste Stations

The company will have to place pet waste stations strategically in the areas, they currently operate. The move will ensure that the dog walkers can easily clean up after these pets. These stations will not only keep the firm’s property clean but also help to improve the water quality within these areas.

Pro

Pet ownership rate has gone high of late. According to Soliman Oman (2016), sixty-five percent of the households in the U.S have pets, and 77.8 million of these pets are dogs. It is evident that most millennium residents choose their communities based on how the premises including surrounding neighborhood are a dog. It means that this decision is suitable for the business as it will attract more customers who will need company’s services.

Con

Pet waste stations have different options. The firm will have to design a station which will allow easy servicing and cleaning so that it does not become a nuisance for the maintenance staff.

Most business managers find pet waste stations to be a value-added service for the communities which allow pets as it helps maintain clean environment while catering to residents including their dog pets.

2. Improving Recycling and Doorstep Trash Collection

Trash Butler Company can improve some services in various ways. The removal services offered should be offered six nights in a week instead of five to avoid waste pilling. The recycling bags or bins should be large enough to avoid pilling. However, on the sixth day, uniformed Butlers should remove waste on the evening hours or night hours and morning hours on the first day of the week. However, the company can allow some residents to apply for premium services whereby collection can be done on weekends, more so when the residents have special events like parties.
