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.

Recycling

Case Date:
6/6/2018

I called last Friday and reported that my recycling was never picked up and I was told to leave it by the curb and it would be a day or so before you would get to it.. As of today it is still in the front of my house full to the top so I guess it will not be picked up until tomorrow which is the usual day for pick up. I need a refund since I pay every month on my water bill for this service. Please have someone contact my. Thanks, Julie

Recycling

Case Date:

Despite the visit from the recycling crew, regrettably, they did not empty my can. I am struggling to comprehend their refusal to collect it, even if it does not meet their criteria for fullness. Unfortunately, I could not find any information on the website regarding the required level of fill for bin collection. Furthermore, the representative I spoke to on the phone in early December acknowledged the need for emptying but continued to defend their reasoning. It is disheartening to pay for this service through my water bill and have a designated recycling can, only to find it left unemptied. Regardless of its level of occupancy, I believe it should be emptied completely. It is frustrating to have it sit around, solely because they are unwilling to empty it due to their perception of insufficient filling.

Can I say that we are thrilled with the new way trash is being picked up now? No. Furnace filter still in the trash can, other trash sitting next to the trash can, collecting rain water. Not a good job this morning. 700 block of Eastside Drive.

Hi, I was wondering if the trash vehicle could stop just tipping over the trash can when they empty the trash bins in SoMax area. This is the second week that the trashcan was on its side. It damages the trash can over time and this morning there was a lot of water inside of the can. Thank you.

The trucks auto arms have punched a hole in my trash can. Every week it gets worse. Now rain water and critters are getting in the can. I think the department should replace this.

Trash

Case Date:
6/8/2023

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.
