Historically, the City of Phoenix and the City of Glendale have used each other's disposal facilities when there is an economical and increased service efficiency for solid waste operations. The current IGA 132974 began on May 1, 2012, is set to expire June 30, 2018.
This IGA creates mutual service benefits and operational efficiencies in collection and disposal, including vehicle routing, avoidance of excessive travel times and distances, fuel economy, and reduction of air pollution.
