Recycle
Ive watched the recycle man struggle with some bins, and had to leave others ... please remember its a man that lifts that overly full glass bin, hes not a machine, they dont have to take overfull bins for OSH reasons ... also dont put cans in a cardboard box into plastics/cans bin ... another thing, especially on our road and alot of others, theres cars parked on roadside of a non-parking road, the man cant get close let alone the truck, and totally blocks the road ... dont park on the road, park on your grassed area if you must, they need the truck to get close to the wheelie bins to pick them up and empty
