Pluggers by Rick McKee for July 28, 2012

Yup. Got four of ’em.

That’s how it works at our house

that won’t work where I live.. they drive down the middle of the street & pick up both sides at the same time.

Around here, the trucks first take an east-west-east route and then switch to north-south-north. This practice has helped me get rid of an occasionally large “collection” of recyclables.

We have large item collection once a year. Yard waste will sit at the curb for weeks before they ever send a truck around to pick it up. The trash pick up doesn’t take yard waste.

More like the itty bitty can they give you for Yard Waste. One can for regular trash, very small, one can for recyclables, bigger, yard waste same size as the regular trash. Then they charge extra for anything over your three cans.

yep, hate to waste any of my large paper ‘recycling’ leaf bags. Some people often put out 10 (or more!) paper bags, especially in the fall! (we have no limit on ‘yard waste day’) I always assume they are paying someone for yard work, who doesn’t know how to pack them full!.

Real Pluggers have compost piles.

Be Blessed,

Moe.
