The waste tax is a business for the coffers of the municipalities but a drain on taxpayers. Between 2010 and 2015 a family with four members living in a house of 120 square meters has been an increase in the levy on waste rentability by 25.5 percent, or in absolute terms, to an increase of no less than 75 EUR . The Office of Cgia studies, estimated that this type of family will have to pay in 2015, to just € 368 Municipality of Tari.

Just slightly lower the burden for a family 3 members, who lives in an apartment of 100 square meters, an increase of 23.5 percent (+57 EUR) and a charge for 2015 of almost 300 euro. Finally a group of three people who resides in a house of 80 square meters, instead, had to pay 18.2 percent more (+35 EUR). In this case, the total amount that will have to pay for the waste will amount to little more than 227 €.

For economic activities, adds the Cgia, things went even worse. Despite a sharp drop in turnover, restaurants, pizzerias and pubs with an area of ​​200 square meters have increased the average levy by 47.4 percent, or in absolute terms, to EUR +1,414. A fruit and vegetable shop of 70 square meters, however, recorded an increase of 42 percent (+ EUR 560), while a bar of 60 square meters had to pay 35.2 percent more, representing an increase of 272 Euros. Smaller, but just as heavy, the increase suffered by the owner of a hairdressing shop (+ 23.2%), by the owners of the hotels (+17 percent) and a car repair shop (+ 15.8%). With Tari inefficiencies of the companies have been downloaded on citizens. In recent years the tax on waste often changed name, from Tarsu Tia and the Tares and finally in 2014 to Tari, resulting in an increase in the tax burden. At higher charge it has not, however, matched by an improvement in service. The Cgia emphasizes that companies of waste collection and disposal “in fact, operate under monopoly conditions, with costs often out of business that households and businesses, despite the production of waste is reduced and the quality of service has not improved, are calls to cover with amounts that in many cases are completely unjustified. ” Although in recent years the economic cost on families is definitely increased since the crisis to date the production of municipal waste has declined sharply. If in 2007 every Italian was producing almost 557 kg, in 2013 the number has dropped to just over 491 kg per capita.
