Trash problem

Featured Replies

So my trash didnt get picked up ( again) today. As I write this I have been waiting for someone to pick up for 20 minutes now so I can officially let them know. They say to wait until the next business day but if I do that it wont get picked up until next week. I had just about gotten it caught up again from the last time it was missed. I have 3 generations living at my house so we have a lot of garbage.

GREAT ! A spam call just came in and when I cut it off now I am cut off from the city #?.  I am tempted to dump my garbage in a city dumpster somewhere!

We have a “ No burn “law in effect. One nieghbor turns in anyone that tries it. He’s the same one that shot another nieghbors dog 6 times because it bit him and it slightly drew blood. He ran inside, got his 22 rifle and opened fire. Shot the dog 6 times, and somehow the dog lived . He didnt get arrested, and the nieghbors insurance paid him 65000 dollars for a scratch.

Good times around here...?

We're allowed to burn paper, cardboard and scrap wood - nothing else per city ordinance.

We can have backyard fires but no trash burning - go figure.

A man was burning trash in a nieghboring county a few years ago and caught the woods afire. I think it burned up 12 houses before they finally got it under control. 

They eventually got my trash picked up. It’s strange how they missed me when they got my nieghbors and came back 8 hours later and got it. I never could get through to tell them after holding app 30 minutes.

A couple of my neighbors burn their leaves in the fall after they get a permit to do it. Last year the city wouldn’t permit it because it was too dry. It stinks and there’s a plume of white smoke when they do it.

We can't burn yard waste so the city contracts with a company to have it picked up.  The most yard waste bags we can put out is 10.  It seems like if you have one or two bags there is no problem, but when you get up near the limit they seem to miss you.
