    Default Garbage Day

    Can someone tell me how many days late is the garbage pick up. If my garbage was suppose to be on Friday morning (today) will it be tomorrow instead because of the holiday or is it 2 days behind? Thanks

    I dunno, I thought it was two days late, and mine is normally Wednesday, so I pu mine out today, and it's still out there, so either it's only 1 day late, and I missed it yesterday, or I don't know what's going on.

    A lot of people missed this. There's garbage all over everywhere you drive in this city.

    /what do you do if you missed it?
    //put mine out on time, but the neighbourhood looks like [censored]?

    Well, I just looked down the street and everyone had their garbage out so it must be only one day late. Or everyone on the street is an idiot, you know monkey see, monkey do? [img]/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/lol.gif[/img]

    I know my garbage day is tomorrow and seeing as we are moving into our new house at the end of the month I have been trying to get rid of as much as possible today. I'm only at 3 bags so far tho... Guess I'll have to keep going. The more I throw the less I pack [img]/ubbthreads/images/%%GRAEMLIN_URL%%/smile.gif[/img]

    I was one of those that figured if EVERYTHING is shut on Boxing Day there would certainly be no garbage pickup. I admit i did glance at the paper to see the ad regarding changes in pickup times. I just ASSUMED it was one day AFTER boxing day.
    So..really...the city did its job in informing us and we just didnt read like we should have. 10 lashes with the wet noodle for me.

    There was garbage pickup Wednesday? That's odd... that's our regular pickup day but it wasn't picked up until Thursday.

    Or... were Wednesdays pickups the ones that were supposed to be picked up Christmas Day?
