hello, I noticed that the town dropped off garbage and recycling cans this morning. I saw them dropping them off at everyones houses but when I went outside to bring them in I noticed that none were dropped off in front of our house. I was just wondering if there is a way that we can get them still. Thank you
#161127 Assigned to: Dee Wills. 1301 South Stull. UPDATE> Rented tenets simply moved all there rubbish to the back yard. So... they will simply never do the right thing. They will end up moving... and leaving the back yard unusable. Meanwhile ... We have rats in the neighborhood now. and Steve the landlord that lives downstairs is simply incapable. So... as a update... its all been moved to the back yard. thanks!
Failure to pick up Trash. I am incredibly disappointed in the city's handling of trash today as we switch to the new system of trash pick up. Nowhere in the handouts given to us about the new system did it say that we can not start using the new bins right away but then today as you drive all over Bloomington all you can see is full cans of trash with a "notice" that the trash was not picked up because it should have been set out in the old way with trash tags and such. This is infuriating. Now we all have to keep our festering, rotting garbage for another week because it was NEVER stated that this couldn't be done immediately. Even your own website simply states: "The new modernized system will formally go into operation beginning on October 2, 2017." This message does not at all clearly say that we have to wait until then to use the new bins. If anything it just makes it seem like it may take that long to get everyone bins and set up properly. Also, and maybe the most maddening part was the fact that when the new recycling bins were used THE RECYCLING WASN'T PICKED UP EITHER. What possible excuse is there for this? We don't even pay for recycling, it's not like the trash where, apparently, if you took it today it was for free. Now we have to wait TWO WEEKS for recycling for literally no reason. Maybe next time you will have learned how to make things clear so that the city isn't literally overflowing with garbage. Your very disappointed resident, Alyssa Ball
Trash and recycling containers left out on the curb for over one week in the 500 block of S Highland Ave on the south side of the street.
I live in a single-family house--807 W 6th and ordered two small trash cans; came home to find four large. Need these removed and the correct trash cans delivered. Also need a way to double-check that I am not being charged for two large trash pickups per week, so will need a method to check this.
When do we start using our new trash and recycling cans?
I have several questions regarding the trash bins. Please email who I can ask my questions. Thanks
Trash cans left out on curb in 500 block of S Highland Ave on the east side of the street. This is my second report about this issue.
The trash was NOT picked up on 10-3-17 at 601 W. Kirkwood Ave. The new trash container is on the Jakson St. side of the house where it has been picked up for years.
ATTN: Eric Sader--My landlord is NOT at fault for the trash not being picked up at 601 W. Kirkwood. The CITY garbage truck failed to pick up the trash! My landlord is great!
