<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi everyone, </div>
<div> </div>
<div>It seems that overall the first day of the new trash service went quite well. There was one block missed the first time around, but they went back already and all is taken care of (I think).</div>
<div> </div>
<div>A bit of clarification:</div>
<div> </div>
<div>1) recycling of household waste (paper, plastics, etc) continues absolutely as usual. NO CHANGE OF ANY SORT.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>2) The large green totes that were delivered on Saturday are to be used as the standard trash cans. They are designed to be mechanically lifted into the trash trucks--this means less spilled trash and less chance of physical injury to the employees. </div>
<div> </div>
<div>3) Since we have the green totes, many of us will not need all our trash cans now and want to be rid of them. If you want to have the excess old cans picked up, just mark it with a big "X" and put it out with the TRASH on Monday or Thursday and Bates will pick them up and recycle them. </div>
<div> </div>

I assume we are still recycling paper and cans and can continue putting the container out at the same time as usual. Unless told differently, I will continue putting recycling container out on Weds. <br>
