This is pick up day. I called Waste Pro to ask when they were going to pick up branches and yard refuse from the Hurricane that passed through Tallahassee a few weeks ago. I was told that Waste Pro has declared a emergency and that they are no longer responsible for pick….it is now FEMA’s responsibility. I asked who to contact and they could not tell me. I threatened to contact the Mayor. Less than an hour later Waste Pro came by and picked up some of the debri. But they left a good bit and an awful mess across the road.

My neighborhood looks like the landfill. There are 7 houses on the main drag that have bulk garbage out front. There are 4 on my street alone. Waste Pro will not pick it up u less you are the homeowner calling. Obviously they do not mind or they would call themselves. There should be a bulk trash schedule like the city has. UNACCEPTABLE ! If I wanted to live in a trash dump I would move to the landfill.

No one’s perfect, people Complain to much. Many of our current problems come from bad policy decisions from the coved lock downs. Blame the government, there not the solution!

@Hope I don’t know but it was about how Governance, Inc. lobbyist/consultant Reggie Cardozo (who is running John Dailey and David Bellamy’s campaigns) represented Waste Pro, and how shady that whole cabal is.

@Hope, WastePro is the biggest contributor of Trash on and beside the Roads in Tallahassee. They wont shut the Trap Door on top and when they hit a certain speed it creates a suction on top and sucks the Garbage out of that Trap Door. I have seen it happen many times.

I have Three beefs with them….ONE: You have to call them if you have Household Waste to be picked up even if they are picking up a Pile that is just 20 Feet away from yours. TWO: I will have a LOT of plastic Water Bottles so I would put them in a Plastic Garbage Bag and tie it shut incase the wend blows over the Container so the Bottles don’t go everywhere. For TWO Weeks that wouldn’t take my Recycle so I called them to find out that the don’t accept Plastic Bags. I said that I have done that for over two years and asked what changed. She said they have New Drivers who are doing it by the Book now. I will be dropping them when my Service Plan is up in 45 Days. THREE: Many times I will come home to find my Container out in the Road, far enough where Cars would have to drive around it.

I had a tenant leave a bunch of unwanted furniture on the curb when they moved out. Waste pro sent a truck to pick it all up, including a very obvious glass-topped table that they attempted to pick up with the claw.

It didn’t work, and broken glass was scattered along approximately 7’0x40′ of the front yard, the street, and even onto the property across the street. I spent 4+ hours with a Shop Vac, cleaning up broken glass….

@ John Clark…

The mayor can’t even run the garbage trucks and he’s trying to make us believe he’s got cutting edge airport deals in the works?
