Cart Testing ANSI Review Dear Ms. Clarke: At your request, I reviewed the ANSI Z245.30 Standard for Equipment Technology and Operations for Equipment Technology and Recyclable Materials — Waste Containers — Safety Requirements revised in 2008. The previous version was issued in 1999. The purpose of the review was to determine what differences, if any, exists between the two versions. The review was limited to the sections concerning two -wheeled carts and their testing, Section 7.2.4 and the accompanying Appendixes. The only differences found were in the way the different measuring units were presented. The 1999 version placed the metric units of measure first followed by the customary units in parenthesis. The 2008 version switched these numbers so that the metric units are last and in parenthesis. Since there is no real change in the standard, all Toter carts tested to the previous 1999 ANSI version still conform to the new ANSI 2008 Standard Cart tests. Thank you for allowing me to be of service to you. If I may be of further assistance, please let me know. G STEVE L. KNIGHT, PE 1507 MT.

We have also adopted significant green initiatives in our manufacturing and logistics operations. Toter Products are the most sustainable because: Recycled material usage • Rotationally Molded Toter Carts with higher strength Medium Density Polyethylene (MDPE) have a superior strength -to -weight ratio that requires less plastic. Toter's annual sales save Toter customers approximately 12 million pounds of unnecessary plastic consumption versus competitors' carts. • Toter has engineered a superior solid steel axle for Toter Carts that saves our customers approximately 4.2 million pounds of unnecessary steel consumption annually for competitors' larger diameter carts. • Toter steel components contain 80% to 100% recycled steel, thereby saving over 3 million pounds of unnecessary primary steel processing each year. • Toter Carts can be manufactured with up to 50% Recycled Polyethylene, depending upon the cart color. • Toter's innovative "Granite" colors reinforce the recycling message with the public who equate our multi -color finishes as "the recycled carts." Reduced material usage • Compared to the ten (10) year service life of other cart brands, Toter's fifteen (15) to twenty (20) year service life reduces raw material usage per year of service by 25% to 50%. • Toter carts have an industry -wide low failure rate, which in turn consumes less material (resin and steel), fuel consumption, and resources. Efficient shipping design • Toter Carts are designed for better truck fill, thereby reducing fuel consumption per cart delivered by up to 33% compared to competitors' carts. • Toter's Nestable Design (carts stack one inside another when fully assembled) allows our customers to deliver 2 to 3 times more Toter Carts per delivery trip compared to other brands, thereby reducing fuel consumption and emissions. Toter has instituted important green initiatives in our plants and logistics: • Toter recycles carts and bins that have been removed from service. • New shipping plans have eliminated all corrugated boxes. Carts are shipped fully assembled with the exception of components inside the cart. • By locating component manufacturing as close as possible to our cart molding operation, over the road shipping, fuel consumption and emissions have been reduced significantly. • Any and all inbound disposable packaging is recycled. • Toter recycles the cooling water used in its rotational molding manufacturing. BUILT FOR EXTREMES"" Hot Melt Compounding Statement Toter, LLC blends linear medium density polyethylene with UV stabilizers and colorant using hot -melt compounding extruders at its rotational molding plants. The use of this process ensures thorough distribution of these additives throughout the cart. This certifies that all cart bodies and lids supplied by Toter, LLC will be composed of this hot -melt compounded plastic. ,,�--G� fir✓ ��� ��1 ���-_ °ura P.

[February 9, 2016] - Toter, a Wastequip brand, and the nation's leading manufacturer of two -wheel carts for curbside collection of waste, recycling, and organics, has recently launched the industry's longest product warranty. Good on all Totertwo-wheel carts sold to municipal or waste hauling company customers, the new 12-year cart body warranty, is two years longer than that offered by any of the company's competitors, allowing municipal customers to save money and significantly decrease their total cost of ownership through significantly longer replacement cycles. The 12-year warranty covers the cart body, all other cart components are covered up to 10 years. Produced through a patented, stress -free molding technology known as Advanced Rotational Molding, which offers the industry's highest strength -to -weight ratio, Toter carts are tougher and more durable than their injection -molded counterparts. This process not only ensures a longer service life (15-20+years on average), but uses less plastic than other manufacturers, allowing municipalities to better address their sustainability efforts. "Because Toter works closely with municipalities throughout the country, we know that there is unprecedented pressure on them to do more with less, to decrease costs and to reduce their carbon footprints;" said Jim Pickett, vice president of Toter sales. "Our products and warranty are designed to address those needs head-on. Our carts are designed to be tougher and to last longer, which means they need to be replaced less often - reducing the hassle of calls and complaints, keeping old carts out of landfills and saving time and money." While many municipalities allow their waste management providers to select their trash cart vendors, an increasing number of municipalities have chosen to work directly with trash cart manufacturers to address specific requirements such as those outlined above or in response to a need for specialized carts, such as animal -proof options. Having introduced the first -ever automated curbside cart system in the 1960's, Toter continues to lead the industry both in innovative product development and as the leading supplier of trash carts to both waste management companies and municipalities. Toter offers convenient cooperative purchasing through National IPA, allowing municipalities to ensure a low price without the time or cost associated with going to bid. "If you're looking for a quick budget gain or sustainability win, we Invite you to contact one of our municipal sales experts directly to learn more about what Toter can do for you;' added Pickett.
