I don't live in the town so I don't know.  I wrote you about the watering and my parents' garden last summer they live in the town. I have to help again because my father will be in a rehabilitation place when he had a minor attack out of state so my mother stays most of the time out there.

I can't find your yard waste pick up schedule and I saw the truck go by last week one day so I was coming over to do the stuff this week to find you picked up stuff two days ago which is not the same day as it was last week and there were no holidays.  This is so confusing. Don't you do it on the same day every week like we have in Schenectady which is where I live and we always know what day they will come even though sometimes holidays cause it to move we can keep track of it. And then I can look on the website if I forget the schedule.

Can you make sure this gets to the waste collection department in the town. Thank you

In the words of the board poster who is on the town planning committee, "phone the town offices" to ask questions!

Gerri, I dont think they are that organized. If you put it out, they will come

Of course I know they will come but I don't get you just saying just putting it out and they will come. But what day of the week.  I know what day of the week I'm putting out trash and yard-waste in Schenectady because the city is good and has the schedule on paper and their website. I know my parents here in the town have the private trash collection which costs so much more but at least they know what day it is so they put it out the night before.

But since they are not here now but I know what night to put the trash out, I just don't know what night to put the yard waste out.  You said you aren't that organized, what are my parents getting for all those taxes they pay. maybe you can ask the city how the city does it so we know what and when.

I wonder how that proposal to charge for yard waste pickup is going.  Did that pass yet?  

Just put it on the curb (their right of way) and let it sit.  It'll be picked up within 7 days, that's the best any of us can tell you.  Maybe when they start charging us for it (separate fee) they'll come up with a set schedule.

I suggest that you actually call Town Hall and the approved person in the administration will give you the EXACT answer you are seeking. The nayboobs know NOTHING and --- you are indeed entitled to be angry at Graham Bonnet because he is an a**.

Gerri J, as others have suggested, there really isn't specific yard waste pickup day in Rotterdam. My brother in law puts his out and it's gone within a week.

THERE IS NO F'ING DAY OF THE WEEK! WHAT DIDN'T YOU GET?

OK, I am going to put it another way: Drop dead.

I told exactly how they do it. I couldn't be any more clear. You can go sit in DVs lap in the electric chair for all I care. Jesus Christ, why are old people so thick?

If you've run out of your meds today, I might be able to share some of mine.

LOL

No, I have run out of patience for imbeciles

Maybe you should ask if you think it is so wonderful to own property in the city, that you may never, ever be able to sell.

It's a simple process in Rotterdam.

Pile the crap by the curb, then it vanishes.

Sometimes the truck leaves a giant claw mark on the lawn, but what the hell.

I hope Gerri got a permit before taking down any trees or shrubs.

Only kidding, Geraldine.

I hope your Dad feels better soon.

Pay no attention to the angry mob here.

They can't help being miserable because they live here.

Hey GB  RS.....birds of a feather flock together.......quit the bullying nonsense......

mindset of a Rottendam resident.....hit below the belt whenever you can.......maybe you men should be in government...sounds like you

would solve all problems.......your way or no way.......which is what is going on now....

GB  RS.....new government candidates......vote before you expire...

I posted an answer and the biotch gives me an angry diatribe like it is my fault they dont have a system. In the words of DV "gfy" I am not the bully, I was trying to be helpful to an obviously pissed off oldster. SHE is the damn bully. Did you read where she places ME at blame?
