Trash

Case Date:
6/28/2018

Today, 6/28/18, I returned home from work to find our trash and the neighboring properties (all on S. Bainbridge Dr. east side) on our side of the street had been skipped for trash pick up. I have a full trash canister and cannot wait until next week for pick up. We are a scheduled Thursday pickup. This is the second time in three weeks this has occurred. The first time I spoke with the recycling crew and they notified headquarters and the issue was remedied. Please pick up our trash asap. The canister will sit out in front of the house until sanitation picks it up. It is full and will need emptied in order for us to have trash service next Thursday. Please correct whatever is going on with this route. It is aggravating to have this occur twice in a three week period. A picture of the three canisters which did not get picked up is attached.

Yard Waste

Case Date:
7/10/2018

We live at 806 W. 4th St., in Bloomington. Today, Tuesday, July 10 was our normal trash pick-up day, and also the day for yard waste pickup, according to Bloomington Sanitation's "yard waste collection schedule." We have two 35 gallon bins filled with yard waste waiting at the curb in front of our house. They are properly packaged, and under the 40 pound limit. While our garbage and recycle bins were collected, these yard waste bins were ignored, (although they have been collected on past dates) No note was left by the Sanitation Dept. workers. We appreciate this service, and don't mind the collection fee, but we were missed today.

Yard Waste

Case Date:
9/10/2018

Just a question: I can't find a definition of "yard waste" on the site. Is it strictly grass clippings and leaves and other yard waste or can I include other compostable items from the kitchen - banana peels, apple cores, etc? thanks,

905 W 6th St Bloomington, IN 47404 Hello, with the rain this past weekend, I was surprised that both of my containers, waste and recycling, had several inches of water in them. Apparently the lids do not close securely allowing rain to enter which deteriorates paper goods and trash if not in plastic.

Sanitation website says all forms of styrofoam and milk cartons (waxy coating) are non-recyclable but our City recycling cart says that both may be recycled. Can you tell me which is correct? Also, the weblink for emailing Sanitation on the sanitation page is broken. Thank you, Perry Metz

I have a large amount of cardboard is it possible to put this with my bins. I understand if there is additional cost. The cardboard can be flattened it is just really large. Thanks for your help!

It appears trash was picked up on Madison but not recycling (or the last of the christmas trees.)
