There is a trash island the size of Texas in the middle of the Pacific ocean. I want to keep my future, and my future kid's future clean. Even if we just start recycling at Tappan, we can make a small change that might influence a much bigger one.
I also want my service changed back to the original company. I invested in two expensive trash cans that I can no longer use and am forced to lease a trash can from the new company. The quote the county received from the new company must have been much lower. This makes sense, considering the new company only allows one trash can per home, unless the homeowner pays for the additional cans to be picked up. This allows for the county to pay a minimum charge, with the homeowners absorbing the additional costs for multiple cans. The homeowner not only pays for the service through their taxes, but now also pays additional for the same service they had previously.
Waste Pro has missed picking up our bin twice even after it picked up all of our neighbors’ bins! It smashed into my neighbor’s live oak tree which had to be taken down by the county at a cost of 2500$( absorbed by the county) BUT refused to plant a tree in its place! It has yet to pick up another neighbor’s extra trash for 3 weeks despite their scheduling for it and numerous follow up calls!
I am not the greatest about recycling, but it kills me to throw away perfectly good things, or even broken/old things that I myself don't have the time or knowledge to repurpose. And knowing there are those who need these medical supplies but can't get them, while we wantonly throw them away is absurd!
After using my CPAP for quite a while I felt it was time to get new tubing, etc. It was beginning to have a slight odor. However, when it came time for me to replace and I read that I should just throw it out, I was shocked. I am very big on recycling and it killed me to have to put these items in my trash. I felt like I was commiting a crime!
