After recognizing that the price for sludge removal each month was rather costly, North Judson Town Superintendent Joe Leszek spoke with representatives from Republic Services.

During his utility report Monday night, Leszek informed Town Council members what he discovered by talking with reps from the company that hauls off the sludge dumpsters.

He explained, “We were not under any sort of contract with them so they were charging us about $1,000 a dumpster every time they moved it off.” Leszek continued, “By just signing a simple contract with them for the next year, they knocked off $250 per dumpster.” 

Leszek said with the contract in place, they will now pay around $750 per dumpster which will result in a savings of about $500 any time they are picked up.
