We are just north of 466A off Morse. Put out nicely tied up palm branches last Wednesday afternoon. It's now a week later and they are still there. What the heck?

All we could find was maybe a Wednesday pickup but so far no go.

Anyone have a schedule?

I think they changed the trash pickup to twice per week, and there is no separate yard waste or cardboard box pickup schedule. But, I don't know why your trash was not picked up.

Actually same as before....just no pickup on Wednesday.

Last I read, tree limbs (which is basically what a palm frond is) can be no longer than four feet. Is that maybe a reason the bundled (tied up) fronds weren't picked up? Fronds are generally longer.

Make sure palm branches are laid out with the tip of the branches toward the street. This way the workers don't get cut/stabbed on the needles at the other end of the branch when they pick them up.

Well, a bit over 4 ft. Maybe 6ish.

Much less than anything we've ever put out before with no problems. Maybe 8 bunches with 4 or 5 in each.

So now I pay more and get less.
That's the new American way. We'll see tomorrow I guess.

While I represent the residents of CCD10 on the NSCUDD board that handles solid waste pickups, please do let me know of the status tomorrow on your pickup. I can and have followed through with NSCUDD customers to resolve their pickup issues. Staff is very responsive to board requests.

Please email me at rick.rademacher@districtgov.org if you still have a problem.

Thanks

Picks up in garbage day. They may be too long. We always cut palm fronds in half. They picked outs up yesterday with trash

Call the provider if no satisfaction call the district

[bowlingal]

must be in 4 foot sections. You must cut them up to 4 foot segments and there is no more Wed yard waste pickup since Oct. The POA and the Daily Sun and the Villages News and the district website all posted the information back in Sept

[mlmarr1]

might be to large of bundles, try cutting them down and putting in the paper yard bags you can pick up at Lowes/Depot/Sams etc

[bobdeb]

This is not a large pile... past over again today. Much, much smaller than ever before, when we paid less for disposal.

Nothing unusual. Ok I'll cut into smaller bundles. Apparently it's a bit too long.

No joy here.

Rick, wouldn't it be nice if the businesses we work with had some common sense, and maybe someone could have rung this guy's doorbell and tell them to cut them up please? I'm just saying that my reasoning to complain is always to get something changed or fixed, not just to complain. Another simple idea is to have a door tag made up saying we came by but we couldn't pick it up because of XXX. Very similar to UPS / FedEx drivers.

[Lindaws]

Everything is picked up twice a week. You should be Tues. & Fri. No Wed. pickup.

Why not follow the advice in #7?
