The Trashcan Fix or Replacement in our Areas - Sign 51

Friday, September 1, 2023
 When we are jogging, we just saw a trashcan with a sign which need to be repaired or replaced. The sign has quite attractive words, make us smile.


Fig 01- A trashcan, need to be fixed or replaced.

The words: "for the love of God. Please fix this trashcan." Actually, we have similar problem several years ago.

On that time, the garbage truck caused the damage, then, we called the city (311) multiple times.

As requested by the city, we put the damaged trashcan at the end of the driveway. Our address, home number is very visible from the street.

Unbelievable, the 3rd party contractor that repairs/replaces the trash can keeps going to the wrong house and has admitted they went to the wrong house.

Finally, it had been replaced after almost 3 weeks. It’s getting ridiculous, especially for the amount of money we are charged.

Have you ever had a similar experience?

  4. We do have a new truck system now that mechanically handles the bin..naturally, there was cost involved, but so far so go.

  5. Στην Ελλάδα την επισκευή η την αντικατάσταση του κάδου
    είναι ευθύνη του δήμου όπως και η διαχείριση των απορριμμάτων
    Στην πόλη που ζω αν διαμαρτυρηθεί κάποιος πολίτης
    η πάρουν τηλέφωνο...
    τον αλλάζουν σχεδόν αμέσως

    Σε ευχαριστώ για την επίσκεψη για τις ευχές σου

  6. We share a trash bin with a restaurant. When we moved here, he told us to use his bins because the trash company makes enough money with their high prices. So we don't pay a fee and appreciate the restaurant owner's kindness.

  10. I have no such experience.
    Sometimes the contents of the bins are taken to us much later than necessary.
