collection – they will instead opt to have the City collect their items. The more residents participate in any of these options, the more the tipping fees will rise.

CONCLUSION: 

Illegal dumping of bulk items is nothing new, and in fact has not significantly changed over the years. Most residents have been accountable for their items and have used a local charity, private resale or the Public Drop Off. For the vast majority of residents, transportation, tipping fees and hours of operation do not appear to be deterrents to proper disposal.

Assuming that the reason for illegal dumping stems from the lack of transportation to move bulk items and/or lack for funds to pay the tipping fee a curb side collection would certainly provide a service to address those issues.
