No longer do they pick up our recyclables every week. No, now it is just every other week. I might be reading between the lines, but don't see how I am going astray in figuring out what is going on.
People aren't recycling.
Most trash is recyclable. All paper is, as long as it isn't stained with food or oil. Tin and aluminum cans? Both good. Plastic containers -- though you should wash the food or whatever off them -- are all good.
So, if most trash is recyclable, why reduce the pick-ups to every-other-week? Are we, the public, not using the recycle bins? Are we sticking all our recyclables in with the regular trash? I do not see this as a small problem. Recycling is important. When the city started the program, it was important.
It still should be.
