Waste

Variability in your waste from month-to-month makes a big difference to certain service providers.

Is your container size and collection frequency optimized?

Finding a provider that is both cost effective and meets your needs can be challenging.

Are your waste disposal fees changing frequently over the course of the year?

A professional audit of your expenses can get to the bottom of it.

Merchant Services

Do you reference the "effective rate" to evaluate how competitive your processing fees are?

A blended pricing structure makes it more difficult to fully understand all the factors impacting your fees.

Do you know how your current processing environment impacts your processing fees?

How you process payments and capture data can have a big impact on your monthly fees.

Have you asked your processor to provide you an "interchange-plus pricing" quote?

Telecom

Have you conducted a recent usage audit across your telecommunications system?

In many cases, we find inefficiencies and redundancies in the number of lines and features.

Have you considered moving to a Voice over IP platform?

Cloud based telecommunications systems typically provide unique features at lower costs.

Do you know when your current plan automatically renews?

Companies typically only have a 30-day window to make changes to their current contract.

Shipping

Have you considered splitting your shipping business across multiple vendors?

Vendors tend to specialize in certain areas so playing to their unique strengths can reduce your overall costs.

Are you paying for unnecessary delivery guarantees?

Being more flexible on delivery times can significantly reduce your costs.

Do you review your monthly statements to ensure the correct charge codes are used?

Charge codes can be very confusing and require a detailed review to ensure you are being charged correctly.

Facility Supplies

Are you over or undersupplied?

We audit your invoices to ensure optimal delivery schedules.

Are you splitting hairs with multiple vendors?

We look at all supplies invoices, across all vendors, to make sure everything you need is being ordered, delivered, and replenished effectively.

Do you require specific product quality or other specifications?

Schooley Mitchell helps you find the solutions that bet fit your business.

Provide Us Invoices or Online Access

You provide us with the bills or online access to your vendors so we can establish a baseline of your current cost structure.

Step 2

Derby’s Restaurant and Bar

"I would like to take this opportunity to recommend the services of Brian O'Sullivan and the team at Schooley Mitchell. They have saved me money and a lot of time! The rates they negotiated for us are saving us money each month on our trash service. I also would like to mention that when there are any problems, they call the vendor and resolve issues that we have had with overage charges, missed pickups, and even getting the fence around our dumpsters repaired that were damaged by the trucks when the trash was picked up."
