[RP TownTalk] Recycling

We have had similar problems in Hyattsville; however, may I mention that it is horribly hot and that all the contractor trucks that I have seen recently have not had operating lifts.  That means the guys on the trucks are having to lift and dump the huge toters of recycling.  I asked one of the guys a few weeks ago about the lifts; he said the one on that particular truck had been broken for weeks.  My husband talked to one of them last week in the early evening and said the guys looked awful after having worked more than 8 hours.  Of course, that is how contracted out services frequently work; the employees get shafted so the owners can make money on the contracts.

Adrienne and all,

We (Town Government) have contacted the county twicein the last 18 hours--recycling is a county service--regarding the large scale failure to pickup in our area.  I'll get the complaint line number and be back with it shortly. 

This is a systemic failure--at least 4 of the last 5 weeks a significant part of Riverdale Park (and surrounding areas) have not had their recycling picked up in a timely fashion. Your town government is acting as your advocate to get this situation corrected ASAP! 

Vern
