TRASH COLLECTION

I can’t imagine what they were thinking. The City has hired a new company to collect the weekly trash that homeowners place on the curb. Because the new company uses special trucks with an electronic arm, homeowners needed new special trash carts that will fit into the electronic arm. And so during the last week of December, the trash company delivered new carts to every homeowner. So far, so good. But the homeowners will now have to follow new rules to comply with the company’s procedures. And so, the new trash pick-up company delivered an instruction booklet to every owner in the city.

Well here’s the problem. When the trash removal company delivered the trash carts, they placed the instruction booklet INSIDE the cart that is about 4 feet high with a cover on top. Unfortunately, the booklets fell to the bottom of the cart. And when the homeowners rolled their carts into their garages, it never occurred to them to open the cart and look inside. Why would they? They had no idea there was a booklet inside the cart at the very bottom. The company should have just mailed the instructions separately?

As a result, when the new company began their first trash pick-up on Jan 2nd, 2010 there was mass confusion. What were they thinking?
