[RP TownTalk] Recycling collection this week

[Garth and Sarah Moore]

We just called 311 and they said that Bates told them to tell everyone to just leave all the recycling at the curb and that it will be picked up. We ask if that would be today or on Saturday, but they couldn’t give us an answer. So, will just leave it on the curb and hope they come by.

When I've tried to pull back the recycling bin from the trash pick-up crew -- saying I'll take it back and put it out the following week -- crew members pull back the recycling bin from me saying they just have to get the bins emptied and off the street and it doesn't matter where the contents end up.

We have a lot of stuff on the curb, really don’t want to have to move it all back, especially since next Wednesday is New Year’s Day, so again no normal collection.
