Geeze!
That's you

see others may have more than one bag and would have like to have known in advance- it is not a free service and they should have updated us if they did not want to be bothered for answering the phone (kinda their job though)- GEEZE!

There was a recorded message. No need to talk to someone on the phone. Also, the phone message contradicted the website message until they fixed it.

It's too windy and rainy for those men riding on the back of the truck. Give them the day off with pay.

The updated e-notification came out at 9AM this morning - too late for many people.

I am typing slow so you can understand- the notification came AFTER the time to put out the trash not BEFORE- hopefully that clears it up for you
I will no longer respond ( or even read) to your diatribes coz it seems like it is your "thing"

you have a good day and "bless your heart"

Unbelievable ?

Not on this site , where bored trolls just sit and wait to pounce on the most innocent of posts and get their "witty" retorts in so they can use their emojis and sit back and tell themselves how they are oh so clever

In my neighborhood, the notification system was a failure. Almost half of the houses now have bags of trash on the driveway.

It’s almost like common sense when a Hurricane is imminent garbage is one of the last things you want flying around your neighborhood but that would be something else to complain about. Didn’t we have a Hurricane drill last month?

Please do not introduce common sense on this thread…….that is just too difficult for some to understand.
