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!

Hello. I am a Bloomington resident residing at 110 1/2 W 6th St. My apartment entrance is in an alleyway off of 6th between Walnut and College. While this alley has normal amounts of debris, there seem to be many unsafe wires dangling from the various poles and buildings. My main concern is with the alley behind my building. The entrance is off of Walnut between "Btown Diner" and "Samira" restaurants. There is an abundance of trash, grease, vomit, bugs, defecation, and cigarettes throughout the space that causes a repulsive smell and attracts many rodents. This is a very unsanitary environment that workers from the businesses(restaurants especially) on 6th Street take their breaks in. I am not sure the best course of action but I would suggest having the businesses clean their trash bins in addition to having the city power wash the grease and other various fluids off the pavement. I would appreciate a response. Thank you, Ryan

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

Yesterday morning, right after my kids jumped on the bus, a city waste truck came to do pick-up with a confederate flag license in the front dash. Please have it removed. For some, it is a symbol of hate and violence.Thank you
