By Buddy Nevins, BrowardBeat.com, for SouthFloridaReporter.com, Jan. 7, 2016 – After 37 years, Plantation has finally taken competitive bids to choose which company will pick up the city’s household waste.
Only two haulers submitted bids — the city’s longtime hauler Waste Management and Waste Pro, a firm with business in eight Southern states which picks up waste at more than 300,000 homes and 3,500 businesses in Southeast Florida.
Sources say Waste Pro submitted the low bid, but whether the firm’s proposed to offer the identical service as Waste Management could not be immediately gauged.
