Yard Waste
- Case Date:
- 9/5/2016
Our yard waste was not picked up today, but our neighbor's was. It has the proper sticker on it and was at the curb overnight.

Collectors passed by our recycling containers this morning--managed to pick up our neighbors but missed ours. Tell them to look for the red containers with recycling logos on them sitting on curb. So glad my tax dollars go to pay for services that are not provided.
I have just moved to 729 S. Washington St. I need two recycle bins.
Not sure why my trash was not picked up yesterday (Thursday). My recycling was collected, but not two bags of trash (with stickers showing clearly). I guess I can put them in my garage until next Wednesday night, but if there was a problem with the trash that kept it from being picked up, I would like to know what that problem was.
My recycling and paper recycling was not picked up today. I called twice, both times before dept. closed. First time, at about 11:46 or noon got a man, very nice; second time at 1:50 an answering machine. I'm told recycling is closed on Friday. For how long must I leave these two containers out for pickup? I finally called the Mayor's office, and Elizabeth filed a U-report. Naturally she was nice and very prompt in helping me.
Bundled and tagged yard waste not being picked up for several weeks at my rental property.
Hello! I noticed that there are plenty of recycling options on Kirkwood, but almost none on the half right outside of the Sample Gates until you get to around FARM (I know because I had something to recycle and walked until I found a recycling bin). I think having a few more recycling options in this area would be helpful, especially considering all the recycling people might have coming out of places like Chipotle and the Pourhouse. I really hope you consider doing this!
For some reason my recycling was ignored this morning, even though the rest of the street was collected. No note was left, so I am in the dark. If there was a reason, I'd like to know it please. Thanks, Keith
Our recycling was not picked up today but our neighbors' was. 1917 E Arden Dr. There is a cardboard box full of cardboard and paperboard as well as a standard bin of plastics and metals.
I do not see a way on the website to give feedback so I am using this form. I would ask that you forward the information to the Sanitation Department. I was reading the proposed changes to the trash pick-up at https://bloomington.in.gov/sanitationmodernization. It states that the new rates would be $6-$18/month. This penalizes families who work hard to reduce waste. For the past decade or more we have averaged fewer than 8-10 bags of garbage a year. You are proposing that I now start paying a monthly fee whether I put out garbage or not. I will not belabor the point, but you are asking me to go from paying $16/year to, at best, $72/year. This would not appear to incent conservation in any way.
