re: Trash pick up in NOLA to stay permanently at once a week.

I currently only get trash pickup once a week. It’s really not that big of a deal.
But the $8m rise in cost for 50% of the current service? That’s some bullshite right there.

It's more New Orleans than getting shot while driving on the interstate

Yeah, I'm wondering what kind of trash some of these people are generating. The cans are huge. We rarely come close to filling one in a week. 4 people in my household.
The cost deal is a whole other issue of course, but I'm cool with the once a week otherwise.

No kids? Our can is full most pick ups. During football season I need two since I typically host the get togethers.

We used to live out in semi rural (at the time) Livingston Parish and it was once per week. We had to rent a 2nd can to make it 7 days. If they managed to miss you occasionally, which happened to us some, we were screwed. EBR has much better trash service.

What is the total contract value with that $8MM addition?
Also guaranteed once a week is an improvement for some areas. Didn't like the once a week at first, but adapted and honestly hasn't been bad. Probably missed about 1/2 the twice a week pickups anyway.

Absolutely, ours is weekly and most times it's not even half full.
But to up the price and cut the service, that's some bullshite.

I've never lived anywhere that did multiple pickups a week. It's really not a big deal.
Where I live now, trash pickup is built in to the water bill and whenever you set up an account with the water company, they give you a can and you can pay $5/month for any extra cans you want. It's a pretty good deal.

They know that nobody else will bid for less.

Except that it’s Nola… so it’s not just that it’s one day a week and paying more for it, it’s that in typical Nola fashion, they can’t even manage a one day a week pickup schedule.
Are they coming Monday? Tuesday? Wednesday? No one knows so everyone just keeps their cans out on the curb.
