We should be patient, help neighbors learn about this service and make it work well.

All other large cities in Florida have well managed programs but we are just starting. The program is brand new and most people don't know all the rules. We got our containers almost 2 months before the first pickup. They sit there full and folks don't know what to do with them.

After a few weeks of pickups the city may look at problems and consider needed improvements.

Leaving this blue container in front of my home will block the sidewalk. Put it out the night before and take it back in by 6pm the following day. Will passers by be gentle with it? Cannot put it on the street as there is no curb side parking on MLK South, so it would block the Bike Lane OR the Roadway. How do I OPT OUT of this program?

We have forwarded the details you have provided to the City's Sanitation department so that they may investigate and take any necessary action. Sincerely, Mayor's Action Center
