This comment is more for Bloodhound above. There will actually be more of a savings every week if you continue to put out your recycles no matter how much you have in the bin. The truck still has to complete its rounds; ie, no savings in gas. The savings comes from the amount of recycles that are brought to the dump every week. The City wants to measure the savings on a weekly basis, to include the discount from total recycles. Combining the recycles into one bin (one truck) and keeping the volume low (don't wait until they're full) you decrease the number of trucks you send to the dump and the total number of rounds the trucks have to make, which equate to huge savings.

The trash volume from household to household does not change much week to week. The savings comes from the recycle discount at the dump. This new process streamlines pickup, saves gas, decreases overtime and maintenance costs. Its a bih win for every Warwick citizen. Just keep in mind the curbside "partial" recycles you are putting out are integral to the savings, its just not apparant.
