“Some of the topics included the introduction and use of wheelie bins, implementing solutions regarding vermin and rodent issues, and continuing to encourage residents to put their trash out on the correct days.
“Minister Burch said the discussions were ‘useful and purposeful’, and expressed his thanks and appreciation to the Waste Management team for collecting tons of residential waste each week across the Island, often under difficult circumstances.
“As a reminder to the public, the Ministry released the 2019/2020 Garbage and Recycling Schedule earlier this month. Online copies can be obtained from the Government portal atwww.gov.bm/garbage-and-recycling.
“A key aim of the calendar is to assist residents in knowing their accurate collection dates for their refuse.
“Lastly, the Ministry reminded the public that it recognises that there may be some occasions when there are delays in waste collection. In such instances, the public is encouraged to call the Marsh Folly Depot at 292-1517 or 292-7454.
“For missed recycling collections email recycle@gov.bm or call 501-3043.”

You get what you vote for.
Trash.
Put that in your ‘That makes sense file’.
Well I’m glad to see he dressed for the occasion!!!
now you can see why we have the crap trash service, wait until it starts piling up over the holiday.
Another useless photo op…..just get on with the job!!
Has anyone tried calling any of these numbers? Our trash was not picked up yesterday-Pembroke- and I have called all the suggested numbers and not been able to get through to anyone – phone rings and person not on the system – main number at Tynes Bay has elaborate answering machine which just passes you off onto the numbers already tried. Tax dollars at work.
