“Trash pickup?”

“Dear PoPville,

I was wondering if you might know what’s going on with missed trash pickups in Columbia heights? I reported to 311 but we’ve now missed 3 trash pickups over 2 weeks and it’s piling up. Wondering if other people are having the same problem or if anyone knows what’s happening??”

Dana also asks:

“it seems as though trash and recycling pick up in 5F hasn’t happened for a few weeks. Any news on what’s going on with the city’s waste management?”

Ed. Note: Closer to Tenleytown, neighbors and my trash was finally picked up after 2.5 weeks yesterday.
