Text Box: ICMA members have received an initial shipment of the Cascade tubs. ICMA members will build the steel frames to show the containers to haulers. It is always good to make a sales call when you have something new and interesting to show and sell. Preliminary forecasts call for truckload quantities to reach most ICMA members for January. A full page ad for this container will appear in the January issue of American Waste Digest, and the February issue of The Hauler. Text Box:

Offer 0% interest for 6 months

There are a number of financing and leasing programs that can get your telephone to ring.  Some of these programs are good , others could be scams.  To be sure that we offer only legitimate programs, it is vital that we provide all of the details up front.  One option is that we offer a lease program with a $1 purchase at the end of the lease.  The customer pays no interest on the lease payments for 6 months.  The interest for the first two payments is split between the ICMA member and the leasing company.  At the end of the lease the customer buys the containers for $1.  This leasing option will close sales for ICMA members.  This deal allows the haulers the opportunity to get the containers that they need now, and pay for them as the revenue comes in.  The ICMA member gets the money within 24 hours of delivery.  We will be exploring these and other options in the coming weeks.  All creative ideas are welcome.    

Welding Wire

ICMA 2 Yard Container in production

The ICMA has reached an agreement with a vendor to supply all ICMA members with Washington Alloy (70S-6) copper coated welding wire.  This welding wire is layer level wound and it will not tangle.   Our prices are based on the quantity ordered and are guaranteed for one full year.  In most cases the annual savings on welding wire will total more than the cost of the ICMA membership.  Orders placed by 3:00 pm EST will be shipped the same day.  Delivery will be no longer than 2 days to any ICMA member location.

Workmen’s compensation rates on the rise...

For the last 2-3 years a number of metal fabricating firms have enjoyed discounts and dividends based on mod rates that are determined by safety records.  The key to keeping WC rates down is to reduce work site accidents.  The ICMA is working with a number of firms to help reduce the risk of employee injuries.  A large part of prevention is through education.
