Today’s recycling changes are a joke… we’re going from 2x pickup a month to just once. Hometown offered a free second bin(because who doesn’t want to store a second 96 gallon bin at their home?!) but no price concession. Rejected the second bin, but still no price concession. The investment by the company is obviously less in fuel and labor charges AND they profit from the selling of recyclable materials to boot! Fuel surcharge still present even with the HUGE drop in fuel prices over the past year. Very disappointing — will be shopping around for different options.

I can’t say that I imagined myself Unilocaling about garbage pickup, but, hey, when you find good people doing a good job, it’s only fair to give them a shout out. My daughter was moving out of her college rental and somehow we found ourselves with a lot of trash on our hands, including a Barcalounger kind of chair that only a college kid could love, but that I wasn’t about to haul into any kind of storage except the permanent kind. I Googled trash removal, found Hometown Disposal, saw they had a couple of flattering reviews and gave them a call. Jo, who answered, was not only friendly and helpful on my first call, she called me back to clarify something and then called me back again to confirm the pickup and make sure we put everything in the right place on the right day. The charge for picking up the dozen bags of garbage was $ 30 with $ 25 more for the chair. Seemed reasonable to me. As would only happen near a college campus, the chair and a few bags that apparently looked promising were taken a day earlier by trash pickers. My daughter and I were long gone, though, and the only reason I found out about it was that Jo called me to tell me that I would be getting a refund of $ 35. Now, she knew I lived in New Jersey and I told her we were going to be gone when they picked up the trash, so there was no reason for them to call me and tell me, except they’re honorable people. Good for them. Good for you if you need someone to pick up your refuse in this part of Pa.
