The new, West side entrance threw us off momentarily, but it wasn't hard to figure out (follow the signs). It was fairly busy when we went (Saturday afternoon), but the employees were on the ball, friendly & organized!

Literally dragged trash through the parking lot rather than collecting it. BBB should be involved.

Why do they insist on putting the garbage bins in front of our driveway? After parking in the street and getting my crutches out of my vehicle, was able to move them a few feet back to where they will stay all week till next Tuesday, when I'll have to move them out of the driveway. -1 ☆

Where does the majority of our recycled materials end up since China no longer accepts them? If our recycling is just being shipped across the world to be put into a landfill or worse, then why bother?

Kevin McElroy | Sep 29, 2019
Cathy Thomas | Sep 29, 2019

A portion of the recycling goes out as a fuel source. A large portion goes to be recycled. Some ends up in the landfill when people contaminate the materials with non recycling type items in their recycle carts. It is not as efficient as it could be because of careless habits. Everyone can do better, it starts at home.

I think that's something you got to call ahead of time for so if you don't have a cell phone make a little difficult I think that's what their policy is and those kinds of items could always just sit it out and see what happens
