On this page of the City of Bloomington Website (http://bloomington.in.gov/sanitationmodernization) I find conflicting references to the size of the recycling cart that will be issued to residents. See the quoted texts below. B. Recycling Operations • Weekly service: Recycling pickup will become a weekly pickup service on a designated day for each household. • Carts provided: Each household will receive a 64 gallon cart for recycling collection as a default. If desired, customers can also request either larger or smaller carts for recycling instead. Carts will be made of recycled content and containers that are currently being used will be picked up and recycled if the resident chooses. **Note: Households receive a 64 gallon cart. **Later it states...under the FAQs... How many carts will I get? Two carts will be provided per household, one for regular solid waste and one for all recycling. Again, customers will choose the size of their solid waste container. Customers will receive a 96 gallon recycling cart (or may request a smaller sized one), which will be collected for weekly single stream recycling. Households (customers) receive a 96 gallon cart. **My question is about which size recycling cart will people actually receive? I know I can request a smaller recycling cart, but which size are you actually planning to give households by default?

Our trash was properly spaced and positioned at the end of our driveway. It has been left without the trash collected for two weeks now and we have trash building up in our house and do not know what to do. This is creating a stressful and unsanitary environment and the sanitation department left no reason or note as to why this is happening.

This is a thank you to the persons responsible for trash pickup today. We are overrun with trash and trash cans overflowing and the sanitation crews are picking it up. We could not be more grateful to the crews and hope this message gets to them. Thank you!

From walnut and Patterson all the way to 2nd and walnut I counted 8 shopping carts filled with personal possessions from the homeless, along with varies debris and trash around these shopping carts! Something needs done by the city to discourage stealing shopping carts! Area referenced needs cleaned up and shopping carts returned to owners!
