Someone has dumped an old mattress on the sidewalk/street. This is just the latest event in the severe downgrading of the neighborhood to occur since the city has allowed apartment buildings to be constructed in small residential neighborhoods. I am hoping Bloomington Sanitation can remove this trash.

We replaced counter tops and sink in remodeling our kitchen. I can haul the old formica counter tops to the dump...or wherever...where do I go? I am assuming there is a charge by weight of the refuse. Thanks, jim

I did not receive my trash and recycling carts when everyone else on my street did. I spoke to the men delivering the carts and was told my address was "not on the list." My house was new construction in 2014, so it's a newer address but not that new. I filled out the form online about which sizes I wanted and no one mentioned that my address was unrecognized. What do I need to do to get my carts?

Property at: 1301 South Stull. Over grown. The only time the property got mowed this year was when I did it myself ... once. Owner Steve lives in Basement. Door on North Side if you can find it! Seriously. Rents out the top floor. Considerable garbage on side of house. All summer 3-4 people lived upstairs. While Steve lived down. 4-5 people living in a 3 unrelated situation. Over the past 45 days it has been down to 3 unrelated. But overgrown and trash remain. thank you.

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
