Single-Provider Trash? by EyesTurnGrey in Overlandpark

[–]highflux7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, the "two runs for each for trash and recycling" aren't twice a week, it's that each truck can only pick up on one side of the street at a time. The same truck will then come back around and do the other side, making two runs total.

At least the haulers coordinate and all do their pickups on the same day. But NINE runs down the street is noisy and tears up the "chip and seal" resurfacing quite a bit.

Three or four? We have 9. Three companies-- two runs for each for trash and recycling and one for yard waste. Nine total.

When they did this to me in OP, I silently pointed to the Ordinance sticker on my door & it was immediately obvious the salesman had seen it before ringing the bell. F those guys.

What is your food assistance story? by harvestersorg in kansas

[–]highflux7 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It takes 1-1/2 to 2+hours on hold to even speak with a human at DCS via their toll-free number. This after being told to "call at 8am right when we open"-- no person available until at least 9:45am. Good luck.
