I have lived in the same area for 52 yrs. I am not impressed by the new trash service. We were told they could not get their trash trucks down the alley. But it is a regular trash truck and smaller than Waste Management. Then we got a letter that some residents of Granite City will go back to putting their trash in the alley but not in my area. then I was told by a friend who only lives a block and a half from me that she received a post card telling her, her pick day has changed. Is this now because she is putting her can back in the alley? I live on a street where there are several cars parked on the street so to put my trash out I have to almost put it in the driveway and block that just so they can pick up trash. And the recycle what is up with that. They gave a recycle can but last pick up day they put trash and recycle in the same truck. I just don't understand. I hope the Mayor reads these post or at least has someone read them and bring things to his attention. You want me to put my can on the curb for pick up, fine the first time they leave a mess, drop trash and don't pick it up or there is trash scattered down the street. My 1st call will be to Republic Services 2nd call to the Mayor.
