I acquired 40-50 large blue trash bags for free and have noticed that they look so much nicer compared to my neighbor's use of white and black bags. It's worth noting that with the blue one cannot see the actual trash like one can with the white trash bags and doesn't hold the heat like the black bags. I don't want to force the entire Villages go to the blue bags....just my village and the 3-4 closest to me.

I often wake up at night worrying about the trash pickup schedule

Trying to start a business for my wife knitting garbage bags but she only knows how to do it using blue yarn? Is that allowed?

In 2022; If your in a Monday & Thursday trash pickup Village- you had 5 weeks with a holiday (plus 2 Hurricane weeks) of ‘Non-pickup days’. The Tuesday/Friday villages had none (0) due to holidays…

In 2023, this unequal pattern continues...
The Monday/Thursday villages will be impacted by 4 holidays; while the Tuesday/Friday villages are only impacted by 1 holiday.

We all pay the same monthly garbage collection fees; but half the Villagers get less service for their money (due to more holidays falling on their trash pickup days).
Year after year - I say it’s unfair. Thus, a need to either alternate the Trash-pickup days every year. ‘Or’ charge Mon/Thurs villagers a lower monthly fee.

Half of you will agree; because you’ve had to hold your trash for a week (7 times) this year…. The others won’t because of little impact on them.

Might be a good idea to get a life.........

Agree with you but back in Va at least we had garbage cans to keep our garbage.

I have one in TV. We keep it in the garage... I line it with a big garbage bag and pull out the bag on trash day... Easy Peazy...

Life just doesn’t seem fair sometimes. But isn’t this a great country or what?

[Mleeja]

Just think of all the renters that get their trash pickup for free!

In Citrus Grove I like how one maybe renter left their trash at the Citrus Grove Postal office. How classy was that on a Friday after we didn't have service of Thursday. 3 bags of untied trash.
