how is garbage pickup fit with the on-demand model? How many people's garbage generation rate vary so much from cycle to cycle to make an on demand model worth while?


> A high-tech garbage service may sound ridiculous to the uninitiated. But it’s no joke to customers like WeWork, Whole Foods and SoulCycle that have signed multi-year contracts in exchange for RTS’s flexible pricing options, along with notifications about when a truck has arrived and reports about exactly where their waste is being sent.

Their target seems to be commercial waste removal, which seems like a better play than residential.
