There is an all too common issue regarding the people who pick up Bloomington’s trash. Every week I have witnessed these men refuse to throw out a garbage bin because the lid is slightly ajar. The disrespect to only complete have their job and just leave residents’ full trash cans on the side of the road is unacceptable. I’m sure the city doesn’t want trash being left on the streets all week. Our property management said that trash not picked up will results in fines from the city. Well, if the city isn’t cleaning up the trash in the first place, this will not be the case. Can we please get a trash policy change or allow these college apartments/ houses have more than one trash and recycling bin so that this is never a problem again. Thanks.

Hello during recycle pick up today i witnessed the people look at our can, that was completely shut and not overflowing, and take a piece out to make it look like it was and not pick it up. This is unacceptable as they took everyone else’s as well that was overflowing even though ours was not. They have done this in the past as well and I have put in requests for then as well. Thanks

Our recycling has not been picked up after meeting all requirements and have caught the collector opening the recycling looking at it then taking a peice out to make it look like we were overflowing then turns the can sideways so they do not pick it up. We have camera evidence as well.

Hello, we have not gotten trash collection going on a 4 week in a row. The recycling gets taken, and the trash is: 1) not overflowing 2)everything is in a trash bag so there’s no loose trash. But it is still untouched week after week. I do not understand the issue and was wondering if we could get told what the issue is and if we can get an alternate pickup day set up to finally get the trash taken. Thanks!

My recycling was not picked up. I did not have anything that is not allowed. No milk cartons, pizza boxes or styrofoam containers. Please direct me to a list of items not allowed. I would like to know why it wasn't picked up.
