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?

Looking forward to the new automated trash pickup system! I would like to suggest colors: Blue or Brown for the solid waste and green for the recycling.

The people at 1317 W 6th St have a mountain of garbage building up in their front (and back?) yard. It smells and needs to be removed. This has been a continual problem with these residents.

Hi there! I'm getting ready to move to Bloomington and I was trying to find my trash collection day. I used your online tool, but it said it wasn't available for my address. Could you let me know what the trash pick up day is for 337 S. Maple Street? Thanks so much!

I live in Canterbury house apartments and use the Bloomington Transit to get around. My daughter (26) and myself are both disabled and have mobility limitations. I would assume that it was from last Wednesday's storms, but there is a large tree branch blocking the sidewalk along basswood between the entrance to Canterbury House Apartments and the bus stop at Forest Ridge Apartments. We had a doctor's appointment this morning and had to be at the bus stop by 7:20AM and was surprised to see such a mess blocking the sidewalk. Since my daughter would be unable step off the sidewalk with her rollater walker to avoid the section that the tree branch covers it meant we had to walk from Canterbury House Apartments entrance to the entrance to Forest Ridge on the road. This was very unsettling for both her and I because we both know how bad cars fly around the corner and how fast they speed through this section. We came in from the bus at 2:25pm today and the tree branch was still there so we took a photo to show.

on the b line trail, on the east side just south of lamp post 7, there is a piece of rebar sticking up about 1" out of the gravel. This is a hazard. I expect you could use a small sledge and a punch of sorts to push it well below the surface. Mike

Orion properties has left the garbage can on the curb for another full week. Who should these problems be reported to? This reporting platform is ineffective.
