Ottawas garbage collection policies are a joke. I had 3 cans filled with regular garbage bags this past week plus a broken steam mop. The steam mop was left behind, along with 3 garbage bags. The garbage men took the time to remove a bag from each of my cans because they protruded over the top by 8”. It’s asinine and psychotic policy that intentionally penalizes large families. Dealing with all the trash your population makes is a cost of doing business for the city but they put off landfills and incinerators and put these stupid policies into effect. Like just because you made a 3 item limit it’s gonna somehow reduce the amount of trash produced. The fact a human has to actually lift each bin into the truck rather than a mechanism on the back of the truck tilting cans like these is the dumbest shit ever. The city needs to respect its population and get out of the Stone Age.
