I left my old trashcans on the curb yesterday for them to be taken away. They took my old recycle containers but did not take my old trashcans.

Recycling never picked up today!
The sanitation crews who collect our trash consistently leave garbage that they drop while collecting bins in our yard.
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.
Just wanted to say it's nice we have good and reliable trash and recycling in park ridge east overall. Keep it up.
To enhance accessibility for mobility wheelchairs, could sanitation workers please replace empty bins on grass off sidewalks? I am talking about the new sidewalks and walking path on West 17th that are situated by the curb without a grassy strip between the sidewalk and curb. Disabled people have difficulty navigating wheelchairs on trash day. Neighbors place their bins correctly at night but sanitation workers unload the empty bins willy-nilly on the sidewalk. It will take more work but hopefully they understand. Sanitation workers do a great job.
see ticket 183072. Trash bin left in path of postman. Both bins were set out on the right side of the driveway.
I have lived at my address 5years And since December of 2022 my husband's been on dialysis at home we acquired quite a bit of medical waste as he treats 5 times a week. The problem I'm having is I made a agreement with the supervisor of sanitation to take 7 bags of medical waste for $20. When I got my bill It was seventy dollars When I called about it I got a phone call back and they said some other things had been placed outside of that 7 bags and that's why they. Charged me the $70. We live on a fixed income and they justified it saying that some people get 3 or $400 bills of trash when students move out. I thought there was a cap on it evidently that's not the case. I don't think it's fair that I can't go get another trash service because I live in city limits. And there's no other way for me to get rid of this medical waste. I can't even make a statement by not paying the $70 because then my water will get shut off and he needs water for his machine. Things worked so much better when you bought trash stickers and popped them on the bags you needed to get rid of big mark up to pay $10 now instead of $1 AND Pay for your trash can.
Trash was not picked up on Wednesday (our normal day). Can it please be picked up. Thanks
My trash wasn't picked up today for some reason. Recycle was taken but not trash and nothing was different from any other time. Thanks :)
