Village Issues Holiday Sanitation Notice
The Village of Hobart Department of Public Works has issued a public notice regarding sanitation services during recognized holidays.
According to the notice, garbage and recycling collection timing may be subject to a one-day delay during holiday periods. Residents are advised to plan accordingly and ensure bins are placed curbside by 6:00 AM on the applicable pickup day.
The notice was issued pursuant to the Civil Control Code Title VIII Ch. 804. Further guidance will be released if necessary by Hobart Sanitation Services.
Funny how they wait until CHRISTMAS to “remind” us about sanitation. Ask yourself who benefits when the trash trucks stop running. Follow the money. Also Dale Bob Sr. warned us about this exact thing in 1997.
Dale nobody is benefiting from trash pickup schedules. It’s a holiday. People are home. You don’t need to make it about underground tunnels again.
Also the tunnels thing was proven take when the old Kroger flooded. Stop spreading misinformation.
Funny you mention microwaves because guess who signed off on the new transfer station equipment. Do your homework.
Dale Bob Sr. also said microwaves erase memories. You gonna bring that up next or are we sticking to trash?
THEY DID NOT PICK UP MY CAN LAST YEAR EITHER
THIS IS A PATTERN
OPEN YOUR EYES
THEY WANT THE RATS
Hollis, they DID pick up your can. You put it behind your shed. Again.
MY SHED IS ON MY PROPERTY
THEY KNOW WHERE IT IS
I PAY TAXES
If people would stop worshipping the garbage and start worshipping GOD we wouldn’t have these problems. That said, this notice is written very rudely.
Speaking of pickup HAS ANYONE HEARD WHO WON THE LITTLE LEAGUE RAFFLE YET? Because I still have tickets and nobody has contacted me.
I just want to know if cardboard still goes out on Thursday or not. The notice doesn’t say and I already broke the boxes down.
Cardboard was Thursday last year BUT ONLY IF YOU TIED IT. Also still no raffle update.
Nadine please stop using every post to ask about the raffle.
People wouldn’t have to ask if the Village did its job.
When I was at the library we managed holiday schedules just fine without making people guess. Clear communication used to mean something in this town.
trash dont stop being trash just cuz its jesus birthday
rats know that
I saw three raccoons behind the post office last night and they were NOT acting normal. Take that how you want.
Easy for the Village to say this when some of us have trauma associated with missed pickups. You don’t know what people are dealing with.
Remember that holiday stress can cause jaw clenching! If you’re grinding your teeth over trash schedules, call Kline Family Dentistry!
If my trash doesn’t get picked up and it starts smelling I’m callin somebody. And it ain’t gonna be polite.
This ain’t about sanitation. Every time they change the schedule something else happens. Watch the river levels. Watch the lights on the water tower. Just sayin.
I PUT MY TRASH OUT 3 DAYS EARLY AND IT WAS GONE WHEN I WOKE UP. EXPLAIN THAT WILL YA.
Reminder: removing or interfering with another resident’s sanitation bin is a misdemeanor. Please report issues through proper channels.
Appreciate the reminder, Pete. While you’re at it maybe ask why cans are disappearing before pickup.
Russell, wildlife activity increases this time of year. Please don’t speculate.
those weren’t animals, they were watching
Gene says the council discussed this and it was all done legally. People should be thankful anyone’s working at all.
Maybe if they didn’t spend all the money on “PossumFest” then we’d have more trash trucks
Don’t bring Possum Fest into this. That festival brings JOY and also visitors.
Birdie I saw you buy a funnel cake like everyone else.
A gentle reminder that cleanliness begins in the heart. Also the church dumpster is NOT for private use.
I taught half of you how to read. The notice is very clear if you slow down and stop yelling.
Alma, clarity means consistency. The Village hasn’t managed that since the copier incident.
That copier was sabotaged and you know it.
Does anyone know if bulk pickup is affected? I got a recliner that’s been in my garage since Nixon.
DONT PUT THE RECLINER OUT
THEY WILL TAKE IT
ASK ME HOW I KNOW
I remember when folks burned what they didn’t need and nobody complained online about it.
This is EXACTLY what they want us arguing about
We appreciate everyone’s patience. Please refer to the official schedule linked in the article.
With respect, “patience” is hard when nobody answers the phone and people have anxiety around smells.
Lorraine, the office was closed for the holiday. We will follow up next week.
This could have been avoided with a single clear graphic.
Next week is too late if my trash is already rank.
Hollis, you moved the shed. Again.
I don’t even live in village limits anymore and this is exhausting.
Again: church dumpster is not overflow. Please stop leaving bags labeled “holiday trash.”
that was aunt linda
she dont read good
