I experienced the same problem about a month ago, but I haven't had any problems since then (29th and Guilford). <BR>

<DIV dir=ltr align=left><SPAN class=ecx120375311-10102009><FONT color=#000080 size=4>I had a similar problem with recycling the last few weeks. I had recycling in a trash can next to all the other recycling, paper bags and such. And this was the third week they didn't pick it up (it was getting full). Luckily, at 7:20 or so I heard the recycling truck and got out of bed, ran outside and saw they had not picked it up. They were a few houses down and I pulled the recycling over and told they missed this one for the third week in a row. One guy apologized, the other, who was responsible, didn't say anything. 29th and Calvert.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV></DIV>I have family in Charles Village and for the 3rd time now the recycling trucks have left the very large paper bag behind. The bag--which positively cannot be missed--had been placed in the corner of 33rd and Guilford, where the city used to pick it up. <BR><BR>After the second time the bag was left behind, I called 311. I went a couple of rounds with the operator who told me that the bag needed to be placed in the alley, adding that since <BR>the 1-1 change, all recycling was to be placed in the same place as the regular trash. <BR><BR>The city managed to respond and pick up the bag of recycling the second time--I am sure only because I told them I would call Mary Pat's office, and Channel 2. <BR><BR>Lo and behold, it was left behind just last week, once again.<BR><BR>Is it that difficult for city employees to grab a bag that is clearly filled with recycling and take it? <BR><BR>Someone kindly offer some advise that will make this seemingly very simple task even more simple--we are committed to easing the devastation to the environment, but the employees of "Charm City" are not making it easy. <BR><BR>Thanks so much. <BR> <BR>Haydee M.
