    Rant F*ck Waste Management!

    Fuck those greedy mother f*ckers at Waste Management! Over the last year my trash bill has increased 60% without any explanation.

    Being the capitalist I am I switched to a different trash service today (65% cheaper) and called WM to cancel. They said they are sorry to see me go but "Even though your service is paid up we have to charge you an additional $35 to pick up the can."

    $35 dollars to pick up their own god damn trash can! I told them to go f*ck themselves and that I'd drop it off at a WM facility myself.

    we pay yearly taxes...and they tack on 8 bucks/mo for our blue bin recycling pick up

    oh I said pick up...

    what I meant is that we have a black bin for trash and blue bin for recyclables and then a truck with an arm comes by and does all of the lifting.....if the bins are not in the EXACT spot, they simply leave the bins there until next week


    nice work if you can get it...

    Council Tax goes towards paying for council services including education, social services, waste and recycling collections and street lighting. We also collect additional charges for funding the local police and fire services.

    We just put our trash bags out on the sidewalk, the city comes around and picks it up. They don't even provide us with trash cans which is kind of annoying, because it smells.... lol

    The city hauls away our garbage, we get 2 large trash bins and one recycle bin for $16/month. They pick up the trash once a week and the recycling twice a month.

    They were charging me $97.00 every 3 months so $32 and change per month.

    My new service is only $60 every 3 months.
