The gypsy neighbors shoved all their garbage in their recycle bins and would
put out one lil garbage bag.

Your weekly rate is higher than my monthly rate for the same thing.
Huh. Mine is a municipal city service; is your rate set by the market?

My "city" is hardly so "crowded" that it could not accomodate a few
more trucks.

re #27
My understanding is that Rabanco used to get subsidies from County to defray
residential costs. There was a lawsuit over it because Rabanco was using a
landfill in Klicktat County and King County wanted "jurisdiction" over the
tonnage of refuse. WMI avoided the whole mess by "easing out" of the subidies
from King County thus putting the cost on each residential owner. There's
something to be said about Human Services Division at County but ethics
dictates that I keep my mouth shut as a county employee.
(I'm sure you can google it)

My garbage service is free (and so is recycling, in which I
participate). They pick up 4 500-lb bags per week. If I have more, I
am supposed to buy tags. I haven't bought any tags and so don't know
how much they cost.
I have received notices that I wasn't recycling right, and also that I
had too many bags for them to pick up. In such cases, my wife loads up
her car and dumps the extra in her employer's dumpster.

You generate a ton of trash per week?

They will pick up 500 lb bags? How do they lift them?

Our service involves three huge bins (blue for recycling, black for trash and
green for lawn recycling). A big truck comes by every week and has a thing
to lift them up and dump them. We fill up the recycling pretty much every
week, 1/3 of the trash if we haven't had any event at the house. It's cool.
Recycling is easy here.

I assume 500 was supposed to be 50 lb, and 'free' means everyone has to pay
taxes for garbage pickup no matter how little they get picked up.

Yes, free means its a race to see who can destroy their water table by filling
the landfill first. It worked great for the folks in Rochester/Utica. You
should see the yummy water that comes out of those taps.

I don't know what my service costs because my landlord pays for it.
We've got a dumpster for garbage and a bin for mixed recyclables.
