You can put pine needles and stuff from your yard in bags beside your black trash can. I called as I just had my back yard weed wacked and asked if I needed to do anything special. They said no, just put the bags buy the black trash can. They said not to put it near the orange one. I have not had any trouble with them. I needed a headboard picked up and I just called and put it out on Thursday. I like the big recycle can as most of my stuff seems to go in that one...

I also left last week several yard bags next to my trash can and they picked up with no problem. :)

Brent is the manager and he is a great guy. He wants to keep all of his customers happy.
Regarding your trash when you're gone, ask a neighbor to put it out for you that morning, and bring your cans in that night. Works for me....that's what neighbors are for!
I love the fact that more than half my garbage is being recycled. I never had the time to take it to the recycler myself, for the few cents I'd get, so this is great. I just keep two waste baskets in the kitchen. Everyone knows that one is for trash and one is for recycling things.
And whenever I put bagged pine needles by my trash can, they get picked up with the trash.
I'm so pleased, in fact, that I think it's about time to make brownies for the trash guys again!

Ooo KW I echo your words. My neighbors are great about that too. Where I used to live I had a 10 year old boy who wheeled my can out every week and brought it back after the trash was dumped. At that time I had four kids under the age of 6 and whenever I went outside to do ANYTHING, they all followed. I paid him $5 a month and it was a win win situation.
I also have separate places in my kitchen for the trash and for the recycling. There is no place to put the blue box so I hang a plastic shopping bag on a hook and all my collapsed boxes and crushed milk jugs and juice jugs go in there as well as my newpaper and junkmail. I take that out about once a day. I too proudly put the recycling where it belongs and challenge myself to fill the recycling bin with recyclables. I've only done that once.
Is Brent related to one of the teachers at WW Elm? I usually do the Christmas cookie thing for those guys.
