For folks needing another can… maybe figure out how to consume less? How about a compost heap?

Unless the staff just walked off the job one day, I have to think management dropped the ball on this one. A little foresight could’ve avoided this, just as keeping spare parts around could’ve kept the plant going when that belt issue took it offline for months. Aside from the ecological concerns now we’re throwing recyclables into the landfill, prematurely filling up that site so a new site will be needed before it had to be.

Can one bring cardboard boxes, flattened, here to be recycled? Currently?

@well … I too have been waiting months for an additional can – 2 months to be exact. Not sure why they can’t drop one off.

I find it frustrating that we have a nearly state-of-the-art recycling facility that people are paying extra to opt into, yet we are constantly being told that it’s going on hold for x reason. Landfill and recycling workers already deal with our community’s trash, and if this is a wage issue, compensation should be without question. If the minimum wage rises to $15/hour over the next few years, then it should be without question that our guys in green should be making that now and then more. The work they do is not the bare minimum, and they deserve to be compensated as such.

I think we’re just going to use our recycle for trash. We’ve requested a second trash can and have been waiting for months. Might as well take the extra room while we got it

Anyone up for making $12hr ?
