The Solid Waste District hours are terrible. I was just turned away at 5:34pm as were a bunch of others (cars lined up behind me trying to leave the lot, so they expected it to be open too).
If the hours were friendly to the people trying to recycle they would be open MORE on the weekends, not less. And they would be open MORE after 5pm, not open during 9-5.
Unless you're trying to pick up recycling primarily from servers and bartenders, these hours do not make sense.

When trash and recycling is picked up on my street (S. Washington), sanitation employees throw the empty cans and bins back down, which is both very loud early in the morning and had resulted in damage to my trash cans and bins. Monday mornings, the sidewalks of S. Washington are strewn with the cans and bins that have been tossed (rather than set) back on the sidewalk.

I have a large amount of cardboard is it possible to put this with my bins. I understand if there is additional cost. The cardboard can be flattened it is just really large.
Thanks for your help!

Today on June 20 2017 I was standing at my window watching the Recycling Pickup crew look at my Recycling and decided not to pick it up so they write me and leave a note saying it's not properly sorted. I am getting very upset with the recycling pickup. They like to pick and choose when they want to pick up my recycling. I sort out my recycling the same way every single time and sometimes the choose to pick it up and sometimes the choose not to. This time they decided not to , and I can almost guess it's because it rained last night and got the paper bags a little wet. So they was to lazy to pick up my recycling. This is very messed up. Big time. Please have someone call me to discuss this issue because it's getting really ridiculous. They should not be working if they do not want to do their job right.

My trash was picked up today but no try recycling, I left the bin out on the curb and they did not take it. I am a new Bloomington resident so I may be unaware of the recycling rules, but the bin had only bottles an cans in it. Any answers would be appreciated. Thanks

The HOA where I live does not allow trash or recycle containers to be outside my condo except on pickup days. I do not have a garage. The new solid waste and recycle carts are designed for outside. I am not going to put two of these in my kitchen or any other room in my house. They are too large for the closet in the kitchen. The only solution is to store them outside. I do have a patio but space is limited. I also do not want to set on the table of my patio and eat my lunch next to what are the equivalent of two dumpsters. I don’t want my grandchildren to play next to them either.
I contacted Anahit at the City of Bloomington legal department and he told me to contact the public works department. I contacted Valerie and she forwarded my request to the sanitation department about one week ago. I have heard nothing from you.
What if anything has the City of Bloomington done about dealing with HOAs? Can you help?
