Many businesses, from grocery chains to other large operations, receive numerous trash invoices without grasping the underlying costs or why prices differ so much, says Jonathan Levy on the Mamish Maverick Podcast with Maynard Breslow. He points out the opacity in the waste industry and how a lack of transparency can lead to businesses unknowingly overpaying, sometimes essentially paying hidden taxes. Levy’s mission is to bring transparency, helping companies understand their waste streams, identify savings, and stop treating trash as an unmanageable cost of doing business.
