Why don’t we get the big bins lime other city’s have. These little red and or blue boxes are pathetic.
The city should make it easier on us.
What is horrible is to be responsible for trash and
Boxes that some one else put on my trash and get citations of $100 because of that !!when they are not my trash or my boxes but it doesn’t matter to the city I’m still responsible!! They told me that I need to see who is doing it!!So I have to be spying on my neighbor or the gardeners to see who is doing that ! I don’t have time to be doing that and on top of all that they don’t pick up my garbage if my big gate is close but they know my small gate is always open ! Just frustrated on this issue

Jack, your comment cracks me up. I feel the same except for Rhonda Anderson who is sadly outnumbered by the men’s club of idiots. The others may not even be recyclable. The quality is too poor. Let’s request more trash bins instead.
So, we turn in the old ones at a recycling event … what happens to them next? These old bins represent a huge quantity of plastic. Is that plastic going to be recycled?
Yet to see WHAT is recyclable under the lid in those bins! I can’t wait. Thanks for doing this.

I agree about the trash everywhere. I’m not sure this will resolve the issue but lets hope…. would love to not see paper/bottles/and other recycle items thrown around the front lawn 🙁
I hope that when they do the collection on these the guys don’t throw them across the walkway and let it fall wherever like they do now. Bigger bins can inflict more damage on my pavers!
please specify each item that can be deposited in the bins
thank you
I would like SIX bins.
I need one for recycling and one for each Commissioner. Thank you.
Does it have wheels? I couldn’t deal with it if it doesn’t.
what can be included in the blue bins? cardboard, plastic bottles, glass bottles?
I would like a second one, as well. I’m happy to pay for the additional bin
Received my new bin; thank you. Maybe pick up the old ones simultaneously?
Maybe publish the City’s Recycling drive-thru events for collection and address?
Long over-due… Love it. Thank you!
Love the lids! That will keep rodents and roaches away! Thanks
Can we make sure they leave inside property and not outside so they are not stolen. Great upgrade and thank you
May I have 2 instead of just 1
