Probably because DPW is a shit show right now. And recycling hasn’t been picked up, so it gets blown around

every time someone complains about the trash somebody pipes up with this recycling bullshit. do people think the city started being covered in trash 25 years ago.

I have zero problems calling out institutional dysfunction. But this has zero to do with DPW. I don't understand how a whole city develops this kind of mindset.

I just don’t understand how people haven’t figured out that recycling only gets picked up every other week. It’s been almost two years of this. Or maybe they don’t care and just put their recycling out every week anyway.

Well in the age of Amazon if you miss one you’re fucked

So yes it goes out every week out of paranoia. But it’s in a lid can so I don’t think it’s blowing away

I just put a recurring reminder on my calendar for the night before recycling day. Some people near me are still using the small bins with no cover and that often doesn’t end well
