The City needs to take care of their own garbage.

Ka San

There is plenty of space here in CO to create a new site. Makes no sense to truck it far away.

Ben Wiborg

We need this in Redmond https://idahonews.com/news/local/boise-on-the-cutting-edge-of-a-recycling-revolution

You and I created the trash we should deal with it with in 10 miles of Bend. OR perhaps between Bend and Redmond so both towns could use it.

Carolyn Harrison Testerman

Avoid transportation costs increasing the carbon footprint of our local trash even more.

Wanda Hancock

Just keep urging more and more people to move to Bend.You are really going to have a problem!

Cover the landfill. /Find a new site, in the county. Build apartments on the old one.

We're running out of space to create another dump site in Central Oregon. If another county has the space, it makes sense to find a cost-effective way to take trash to an existing landfill rather than adding another one to the landscape. Show Less

It should go to mar a Lago or the white house where the biggest pieces of garbage are

Obviously, if kids who shouldn't be riding these bikes cannot ride them to school, that represents hours of the day that they won't be on them, being reckless, violating basic rules of the road, and putting lives, including theirs, in danger.

Cause THEY ARE ALWAYS LATE🤬

Loy Helmly

Missed glad recycling pickup twice.

Rick Allen

We do not even have any recycling in my area, no cardboard, no glass, no nothing!!!

Jacob Wilton

I have a business literally across the street from their office/dump location and still get consistently missed on recycling. I have been missed regularly on garbage as well. The city has the ability to pull their contract if this continues.

Kathi McDonald

I live in Crook County. We went a whole month without recycle pick up. The service is always on FB because of inconsistent service. We went two weeks with no garbage pickup. It's like this all over the city as well as out of city limits! VERY FRUSTRATING when you're paying for a service!

LOL. In Crooked River Ranch - we don't know what 'recycling' is. The garbage company totally did away with it. So - I feel no sympathy for some of you who have 'delays'.

Mark Mueller

Unfortunately we don't have curbsid pickup in rural Deschutes Co. Garbage PU has been good since its been Republic.

Dave Leverick

I have never had a problem with cascade disposal If there is a problem they notify by email and phone
