1994年，佐治亚州玛丽埃塔的居民参加了一个即扔即付的固体废物示范项目。没有支付固定的月费来收集垃圾，一半的居民为每个可重复使用的垃圾桶支付费用，另一半的居民为每个收集的不可重复使用的垃圾袋支付费用。来自家庭样本和全市总数的数据表明，即使在计入(未定价的)回收增加的情况下，这些计划也显著减少了废物排放。BAG计划导致的降幅(36%)大于订阅Can计划(14%)。对该计划的粗略估计表明，居民的储蓄和社会福利的增加都是如此。
In 1994, residents of Marietta, Georgia, participated in a pay-as-you-throw solid waste demonstration project. Rather than pay a fixed monthly fee for collection, half of the residents paid a fee per reusable trash can, and half paid for each nonreusable trash bag collected. Data from both a sample of households and citywide totals indicate that the programs significantly reduced waste set-outs, even after accounting for increases in (unpriced) recycling. The bag program caused larger reductions (36%) than the subscription can program (14%). Rough estimates of the program indicate both savings for residents and social welfare increases.
