Hi,
My trash wasn't picked up yesterday, either. There was a lot of garbage
still in cans and also strewn on the street after the normal pick-up
time, and I thought maybe the truck was going to make a second pass. I
finally took the can off the street after 11 last night. I called
"Streets" this morning. The woman I spoke to seemed inclined to arrange
for a pick-up until I mentioned that I'd get the can back out on the
street. When she heard that I had moved it, she said, "in that case,
you'll have to wait until next week." I explained that I had taken it
off the street overnight to avoid getting a ticket. Didn't matter, she
said. I asked to speak to her supervisor who, in a conference call with
the woman with inexplicable rules and a man with the authority to send
trucks out, arranged for a pick-up. The phone number for Streets is
215-686-5560.
It's an option if they missed your house, too.

I put the trash and recyclables today after checking last evening if
it was a Blue Week.
There were empty Recycling Receptacles across the street, but mine
were not collected.
Well, better luck in two weeks.

The corporate trash put out illegally on Baltimore Ave yesterday

trash day on the holiday schedule.
The corporate hotel developers really showed the people of Woodland
Terrace.
After the residents read the UC Review yesterday morning and saw that
their concerns about the massive amounts of additional trash at the
new hotel were unfounded and unfair, they could walk to the corner of
their block and look across Baltimore Ave at the illegal corporate
trash right in their faces.
Man, everyone knows that the fat cat corporate real estate developers
can promise anything they please even in the face of overwhelming
evidence that they could care less. The contempt and irony are
hilarious.
Ha, ha, ha. Oh man, we get valet parking too! Ha, ha, ha… You're way
too kind, Tommy.
We need one of Tony’s lectures about winners and losers in a
"representative democracy." The people of Woodland Terrace are
considered losers like me, and the people of West Philly! Ha, ha, ha.
Cleaner and safer,
Glenn
