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.

Closed friday, no information on website, newspaper ANYWHERE on what the rules are for Labor Day pick up, do monday picks up, likely no, city closed, so when, maybe folks who have lived here know, but there is no announcement anywhere I can find about holiday pick up schedules. Harrumph

My recycling wasn't picked up today although it is on the schedule to be and all of my neighbors had theirs removed. No notes were left with it, it was sorted, etc.

Does the City not recycle newspaper any more? Most of my recycling materials were picked up early this morning, but I was puzzled to find that the newspapers were left in the bottom of the bin. I finally went out about 1pm and brought them back inside. Should I not put my newspapers out anymore?

If I have a large piece of cardboard, such that a 55" TV came in, does that have to be cut up in small pieces and tied in a bundle to fit in the recycle container? Thanks

Someone this past weekend dumped a box springs in the middle of Wilson Street between Grant and Palmer. I moved it off the street, but could you send a truck and pick it up?

My address is 416.5 North Lincoln Street and because the house is in the middle of the block I have been taking my trash cans to the 9th street driveway for the past year for pickup. My regular pickup day is Monday but because of the holiday it should have happened yesterday and it did not. My cans are still out on the street because I have been wondering if there is a delay due to the holiday. I do not want to be charged extra for a pickup specifically related to my house but I don't want this trash sitting in the sun for the next week and I don't understand why it was not collected yesterday.

The trash for the Killion Apartment building (Woodington Management) has not been picked up in weeks. The company switched over the the City's trash service maybe a month ago and the trash and recycling are overflowing. Trash is all over my yard because of where the management company has placed the trash cans and I would just like to someone to be aware of this problem. My house is also managed by Woodington but I pay for my own utilities and garbage pick up so their garbage not being picked up has become a huge inconvenience.

Hi, I had a note from the sanitation crew that said my trash was too close too a vehicle (true) and had to be placed on the curb.
I live at 419 S Highland Ave. The trash and recycling cans were on the sidewalk, as they always are, so I'm not sure if I'm supposed to put them closer to the street? Also, they are very close to a car because it's the only place they can be put other than the street or the driveway (which is shared) so I'm not sure what I should do.
Also, my yard waste wasn't picked up at all, so I'm in a bit of a quandary. I think very highly of the folks picking up the trash and recycling and want to do whatever I can to make it as easy as possible. I'm just not sure how to do that. Please advise.
Thanks very much,
Deborah

They picked up my recycling, but left the trash in the cart.
I left the cart at the curb so they can pick it up. There is not room in the cart for this week's and next week's trash.
