That list makes my brain hurt. No wonder kids avoid taking out the trash.  :)

So, from the list, it would appear that aluminum foil can be put into the recycle bin (as long as its clean).

OK, I don't feel so bad now, since the vast majority of "trash" I was putting in the blue bin is actually recyclable.  But the stuff I was putting in the green bin was all recyclable.  Oh well, now I know.  Interesting that I never received the list or instructions.  Thankfully the lady on the phone when I ordered my service told me when trash day was. :)

The new list, from their web site, is much more extensive and inclusive than is the single sheet that came with the cans (can't remember how long ago we got the bear-proof cans).  Some items are allowed now that weren't then.  That's great - the more we can keep out of the landfills, the better!   :)

Guess I'll put the original list in the bag with the recycled junk mail.   ;)

Does anyone know whether CR&R is doing regular Monday pick-ups today? I can't find my "holiday" trash pick-up schedule.   ???

CR&R Observes the Following Holidays

    New Years Day
    Labor Day
    Memorial Day
    July 4th
    Thanksgiving Day
    Christmas Day

If the holiday falls during the week, collection for the remainder of the week is one day behind. For example, if July 4th is a Monday, and your normal collection day is Thursday, we'll see you on Friday.

The holiday was on Sunday.  Does this mean that CR&R will have a regular pickup schedule?   Can someone with a Monday or Tuesday pickup verify that for me.   My pickup is generally on Wednesday and I don't want to miss them tomorrow morning.

I'm sure there's a witty response to that statement, but I won't go there :)

Ok, Bob, if you won't, guess I'll have to...

Well, not witty but factual..... ;)

There was a flier enclosed with my last statement from CR&R stating that trash pickup would be on the regular days due to the holidays being on Sundays.  :)

A bill?   Well, I throw those away.    They go in the recyling right?  :laugh:

My recycling is out but my trash is still strapped to the tree.   I'll do that one tomorrow morning.

Yes, O' Stitches big ugly and dented cans are out and waiting for pickup.  ;p

I just read about the fire in the CR&R truck.  I can't believe people would actually throw out hot ashes and believe they are done.   My ashes get to sit in the fireplace and then in a metal can for at least a week before they get dumped.

I just waved down the CR&R man.  I also thought they'd be pushed up a day.  :-\

I had ashes to dump and told him they had been sitting for a week.  He told me he has seen three melted cans so far this year.  Usually he said he'll see that many during the whole winter...  :o

People need to properly dispose of their ashes!  >:(

When i was a younger ladd, I was on the Pinon Hills Fire Dept. And we generally had one or two fires a week at the dump from ashes, during the winter. Also a few structure fires from sahes being stored in a metal can on the floor next to the fireplace or wood stove. You gotts to be careful. ;D ;D
