Recycling

1329 S High ST

Case Date:
5/26/2021

My recycling hasn’t been picked up in the last two weeks and I am trying to understand why. Is it because of the styrofoam? The styrofoam in my recycling bin is stamped recyclable #6, which according to the lid of my recycling container is accepted.

Trash

1327 E 1st ST

Case Date:
5/15/2023

Today I've decided to complain about an issue I started regularly noticing months ago. Whoever is now collecting trash &/or recycling on our street, S. Eagleson Av, in the section between 2nd and Sheridon, is routinely dumping the recepticals on their sides on the ground whereever convenient. (See photo) This morning they left my neighor's on the ground blocking the entry way to our common driveway. When I came to move it, I realized they had also broken the lid. Then as I drove south on S.Eagleson, I saw that this was done all the way to Sheridan, where I assume the truck turned. At least half the bins were on their sides, some in the street. I took four photos the whole way, as well as two of my neigbor's receptical- Unfortunately your portal only allows a single photo, but I have all the others. Please address this situation. There is no reason the recepticals can't be placed upright, but at least they should be neither broken nor left on their sides in the street, on a sidewalk or in the entrance to a driveway.

Recycling

1306 S Pickwick PL

Case Date:
3/8/2023

Substandard service for trash and recycling pickup. The recycling crew has repeatedly turned the trash bin as if to indicate trash was picked up when it wasn't, and today the left the bin in the middle of the driveway. Why can't my bins be just put pack where I left them by the side of the driveway, as is done with all the other houses on our street? Perhaps we should just return the recycling bin, and save the money, and put everything in the trash?

Recycling

1257 W Countryside LN

Case Date:
4/2/2020

I have had several weeks where my recycling was not picked up. Apparently, based on your website, this was because styrofoam was present, but the can clearly indicates that styrofoam is acceptable. Since there seems to be a contradiction, it would be nice if the collectors would leave some indication of what items are not acceptable, rather than leave the customer/taxpayer guessing. If this is a training issue, my address is 1257 W. Countryside Ln.

Trash

1250 W Adams Hill CIR

Case Date:
2/7/2023

I am a condominium owner at the Woolery Mill Townhomes Section 2, a condominium community located at 1250 West Adams Hill Circle, Bloomington, IN, 47403. Every week, we have over-flowing trash bins. Often, I cannot add my trash to the bins, but must wait until they are emptied (otherwise I would add to the problem). I have photos from several weeks that this has happened. I have submitted this problem to the property management company, Jamar Property Management, LLC, several times. I have lived at these condominiums since August of 2021, and the problem has never been resolved. Would you please intervene? A simple increase of trash pick-up would probably solve the problem. We've also been told that one bin is for recycling and one isn't. But, there are rumors that the "recycle" bin really isn't recycled. No one seems to know for sure and we have not been informed by the management company. Thank you very much for your time, help and consideration. I appreciate it very much. I tried to attach a photo of what the bin looks like today, but I don't see that it was attached. I have several photos with dates that this has occurred continuously. It happens weekly. If you contact me by email, I can send you several photos of this on-going problem. Again, thank you very much for your help. This is a nice community, but the overflowing trash bins are inexcusable, unsanitary, and an eyesore.

Recycling

125 E Sunny Slopes DR

Case Date:

re ticket_id=173521 Our recycling bin was not collected on Thursday, August 27, per the regular schedule (trash was collected that day). I sent the problem note on Friday the 28th. On September 8th I received a message that "we took care of the problem." That is either incorrect, because I had to wait a week to have a full recycling bin collected, or it is correct that the reason why we were skipped was figured out (not likely-as it probably was just a momentary oversight). All that was needed was for a truck to be diverted for 10 minutes from another route to collect our forgotten bin. Strangely handled...

Debris Removal (Sand, General Street Debris)

122 S College AVE

Case Date:
5/14/2024

There is a discarded couch on the side of the building located on 4th and College. It needs to be removed from beside this business. When I walked passed it, the smell of urine is becoming more pungent. That particular item was not properly discarded by a college age resident that was formally living in on top of the unit DOWN THE STREET.
