Overview of Market
Combination of public and private providers
- large providers (public or private) dominate some industries
- many small providers in other industries
Different practices by industry – hard to generalize within the sector or between countries
Mix of goods, services, and residuals
Generally growing in nominal terms

Overview of Market
Market Size
Country Units Employment Turnover
USA 43,068 643,026 ≈€ 63 billion*
Sweden 965 12,815 ≈€ 3 billion
France 6,186 84,840 ≈€ 22 billion
* USA units and turnover exclude government operations, employment includes government, conversion rate €1.00 = $1.25 USD

Industry Classification
Industry Classifications Reviewed
ISIC Rev. 4 6 industries
NACE Rev. 2.0 8 industries
JSIC 17 industries
ANZSIC 2006 5 industries
NAICS United States 10 industries
6
Industry Classification Content similar, arrangement and organization differs
For example:• Septic tank services – ISIC sewerage, NAICS other
waste management services, JSIC domestic waste disposal
• Aggregations for solid waste collection vs. solid waste treatment and disposal for ISIC, NACE, NAICS and ANZSIC
• JSIC broken down by domestic vs. industrial• ISIC includes NACE includes class for dismantling or
wrecks, JSIC includes an industry for dead domestic animal disposal services
Overall, differences do make it hard to compare data with ISIC below the level of 37+38+39 for many countries
7
Product Classification CPC Ver. 2.0 28 subclassesCPA 2008 68 subclassesANZSPC 9 productsNAPCS 128 products
Differences in the content and focus of products
8
Classifications Findings
Product - Different approaches
- CPC focus on services only (in division 94)
- CPA has services and “tangibles”
- NAPCS focus on services – more detailed
Products vs. Waste/Residuals (as defined in the SEEA):
positive value = productno or negative value = residual

Turnover Measure turnover by industry or by product?– Private and public activity
– Substantial overlap in services provided across industries
Sources of Revenue– Fees for service
– Tax expenditures, PPP, etc.
– Revenue for products produced (e.g., electricity generated from a trash incinerator, methane gas from a landfill)
Unit to be Measured– Services rendered
– What about the value of recyclable materials and residuals?
– Expenses when covered by general tax revenues rather than direct revenue streams related to the services (not pay as you throw)?
Are growth trends real or substitution from government to private services?
11
Turnover Best Practices
1.Cover both private and public activity
2.Industry and product turnover using census or sample
3.Delineate intermediate and final demand components

SPPI Sources of Data
Various sources reported– Local governments
– Private providers
– Trade associations
Types of prices reported (services)– Fees for repeat services – actual transaction prices
– Contract prices
– Price of collection hour (no direct transaction only expenses)
14
SPPI Best Practices
1.Pay attention to quality – quantities may or may not be price determining, changes in collection frequency, regulatory changes
2.Ensure that method used is appropriate if also used to proxy non-observable transactions (service from general taxes)
3.Care must be taken to match weights and prices coverage
4.Capture and price other outputs? (e.g., electricity, compost, methane)
15
Waste Management Activities
Future •Review at lower levels, heterogeneous industries•Clarify definitions of products (products vs. residuals?)•Clarify scope – services are in scope, but tangible products (recyclable materials or new inputs, power, heat, methane, compost) ?
16
Conclusion • Waste management covers multiple
industries and multiple processes• Turnover and pricing are more
straight forward for private providers• B2B generally has more private than
public activity• Hard to define best practices –
dependent on national market operation
