You're paying for truck trips.

When the blue bin came out, the amount of trucks hitting your house per week doubled.

I think for this program, the black bin only goes every other week now, and I'm not sure if it is the same for the green bin. If so, I don't see much need for a fee besides a slight amount required to operate the compost facility.
