A couple of weeks ago when I was recycling cans and plastic at the recycling shed near the Phelan Stater Bros. to a grumpy little guy working the facility, I saw a CR & R employee (that's what his safety vest, t-shirt and his marked trash cans said anyway) turning in about four full trash cans of crushed aluminum cans.

It looked a little strange to me and I wondered if those cans actually had been picked out of others recycle trash cans during their rounds. Maybe it's trivial but I'd rather have the cash in my pocket from my own recyclable stuff then to donate it to CR & R.

Just my two cents. Or in my case, $12.32 worth. Ka-ching.

If we choose to throw them away in our recycler, I think its fair game to them. More power to them if they want to pick them out and take them to a recycling center.

One man's trash is another man's treasure. Obviously some people do not recycle in the sense of cashing it in for their own treasure...however, if they throw it away - wouldn't it be fair gain to someone else?!   What's the big deal???

When faced with "punks" hanging around the Stater Bros....do any of you ask the store manager to move them off the property?

No never thought about it at Stater's....But I have at McDonalds and they got rid of them immediately and replaced my food...but they ran in to me and knocked my tray over, knocked my kid down...I somewhat told the manager to call the sheriff I was pressing charges if they did not remover the wasted teens.

This is just slightly off of the subject, but I once ate at the Phelan McDonald's. 

Apparently, that's where the B-Team employees go to hone their skills before being allowed to work at the more impressive Micky D's on Highway 138 and I-15.

I waited 20 minutes for a simple hamburger.  Not the Big Mac.  Not fries.  Not a milkshake.  Just a simple slab of dead cow between two buns of mayonnaise, with a pickle slice added for looks. 

That was twenty minutes of mingling with Phelanites while waiting for a little nutrition.   It took hours of therapy to overcome the haunting images in my head.  Even to this day, the banjo music still lingers.

On the other hand, the Phelan Burger King is fantastic.  Fast, fresh and friendly.  Try that Mocha Joe iced coffee sometime.  Good to the last fatty drop.

(No, I don't work for Burger King)

Obviously the trash trucks won't be making their rounds today. I called the office and was told that if they don't make it to your house this week to just save all the trash and they will pick up all of it on your regularly scheduled day next week.

If anyone hears any different, or sees any trash trucks in your area, let me know. I'd love to get rid of all this stuff before company comes next week...

Our normal day is Monday, but the trucks came by yesterday and took our trash. So maybe stick your cans out tomorrow when it clears up and see if they pick them up.

[makgirl]

Our normal day is Tuesday and the recycle truck came yesterday, but not the trash truck.  I think we were the only ones on our block with our trash cans out.

[angelwolf326]

Ours is Monday and only the recycle truck came

[snwbnny]

Both trucks came up our street yesterday - one following the other.

[Stitches]

I called them this morning.   My normal day is Wednesday.  The nice lady said that yesterday they did SOME of the Tuesday route and abandoned the Wednesday route.    I had no idea that Mondays didn't get done.  Well, maybe they got some of Wednesday's.   I'm just guessing.  Anyway, tomorrow they will try again but will focus on the Thursday route first (I thought they did the East side on Monday, in town on Tuesdays and West side on Wednesdays).   Then if they can, they will do the Wednesdays and the remainder ?Tuesday?.     They will have to find my cans.   I put them out this morning and they are half way up to the top of snow.

[angelwolf326]

lol, mine is completely gone....... 

[kawasaki_girl]

so, if you have a Wed pickup, then we should put them out? there is really no place to put them except blocking my driveway.

[KW]

We're heading to Phelan soon and will put ours out at our driveway while we're gone. Our road has only been plowed once in the past week, so not sure if they will make it or not. I sure as heck don't want to miss them though, both cans are full!

I had wheeled my trash container out to the street last Friday, after filling it with raked up leaves, pine needles, and yard debris.  Of course, it got "snowed in", and I tried to dig a path to it yesterday, after finally clearing my driveway to the bottom.  Gave up, decided I'd work on it this weekend, and get it emptied next week.  I went out for a little over an hour this afternoon, and when I came back, the can had been emptied and replaced in that cleared-out spot, instead of blocking the now-much-narrower-than-usual entrance to my driveway.  Kudos to CR&R!!!

Get your cans out, quick! The trash truck just came down Oriole and took ALL my trash - yippee! He said they are the only truck up here today.

[SpeedRacer]

Kudos to CR&R!!  They're working today, walked up to my house, and wheeled out the trash bins on their own.  How awesome is that?
