People need to ration the garbage they send to landfills. We are destroying our planet. This is a good thinhg that they only let you send 1 can a week..If we all send less garbage to the landfills that is lees pollution of our precious natural resourses.

Less trash to the neighborhood makes our neighborhood cleam. Guess your white trash hillbilly a$$ don't see it that way. So where you live you should be a proud homeowner if you know what that means. guess you rent and your yard looks like a dump like most of you kinda people do that don't care what your home looks like. If I knew you own your own home and like the dump veiw of life , I would drop a few loads in your home just to prove a point here. have a nice day !

If you provide your own, there is no extra charge. I have yet to put out anything that they haven't picked up. I think the trash service is fine and is a good value.

Is that your own "private" can,or is it one of theirs? They just started this. We even talked to the crew. If it is not in the can.. THEIR can they are NOT ALLOWED to pick it up ANYMORE..
It's always been that way, but the guy's would usually go ahead and pick it up.. This is not something I started just to get an arguement from people..

LOOK AT THE PICTURE.. I didn't set it up. The lady is dumping her own trash as the driver looks on. She had a can and a box filled with trash.. She drug it across the street, she dumped it in the truck.. THe driver was very polite. He said if he did it he would be fired if he got caught.This is notna compalint against the drivers or crews. Mine have been exceptional.. They even told us a week before about the new policy. OR the enforcement of exisiting policy, if you prefer.

The last company would pick it up if it was bagged and your can was full. This company (AW)will not do it anymore..

It's my own can. Could this be nothing more than a way to force people to pay for an additional dumpster?

You need to know the truth. The box was empty and there was a BAG of trash in it. What do you do when you have more then one family living in a house and only one trash can?? It's sad when you have to put your own trash in the truck. And in Independence, kansas they pick up trash twice a week why can't they do it here? Because I take pride in my home and I don't want it looking like a dump.

A BIG HINT ! Make sure if you place yor trash on their lawn, there's no return labels or address coming back to you. I just heard on the scanner someone placed a couple of trash bags on a patrol car at the police station. THAT TOOK BALLS>>>>> LMAO!!>> WHAT FOOL !

Maybe the trash service needs to go twice a week instead of once a week as planed. what happen to the big spring clean up in this town? you can't help but to see all these tree limbs needing to be hauled off in front of peoples yards.

I got a neighbor that needs to have limbs hauled off, It's been there since January, the city won't do it, but they did cut the tree down from the ice storm we had back then.

As for dumping your trash on the city front lawn ?
Bad idea people, I think if you call the trash service up on wanting extra trash removed they will come out. I understand their reason behind what they are doing here. people wait long before it's time to be hauled off before they complain here.

You might be right, I don't know..Seems that AW is being a little close lipped.. This is a good way for them to get the word out.. Alot of people read these forums,even if they don't post.

But forcing people to pay for an extra can when they only need it once in awhile seems a little over the top. We have extra once in a great while.. Not enough to justify having an extra can 52 weeks a year.

Go ahead.. Give 'em a call. I'm sure if YOU call they will come out. FOR A CHARGE! If the trash is bagged or in a container and it is not a constant thing(every week),they SHOULD pick it up.This just started, and we are complaining right from the get go.

We're not talking about tree limbs, although I've seen them pick those up too, in the past. As I've said before, the drivers and crews have been great, Polite and courteous. Never leaving trash laying loose after missing the truck..

As to laying it on the lawn of City Hall. I don't advocate it. But, if you do and don't get caught.. I will definitely cheer!! Mail your junk mail in with your utility bill.Not breaking any laws there. Maybe they will get the hint.

The City government works for us.. SO THEY NEED TO GET OFF THEIR ASS AND DO SOMETHING!!
