Thank you for submitting this issue to the City of Portland using SeeClickFix. It has been received as service request ID #63513. Our staff will now begin their investigation.

The city doesn't pick up recycling in small bins, paper bags, cardboard boxes anymore. All recycling should be in the large blue carts with lids. Why is this so hard for some people to catch on to???

what an eye sore! ...and the cardboard boxes makes it even worse...

PineWinter because it was not put on the media or in a mailing just on the city web site.
on this one issue the city dropped the ball.
I my self found out on the city web site after a tenant where i live asked me.

Actually there was a postcard mailing in early summer and the info was provided in flyers delivered with the bins themselves...but i agree more should have been done to educate.

Pine Winter i live in a 12 unit building and take care of keeping the property owner up to date on such things WE NEVER got any post card's in the mail telling us how to use the new system ONLY the small packet that came in each recycle toter and i had to collect those and send them to the owner so they knew what was what:)
The city should have sent an info packet to each home owner property owner land lord and tenant in any rental buildings:)

Your request has been closed. Thank you for partnering with us to keep The City of Portland a great place to live and work.

This was reported 13 days ago! Of course the debris has since been removed... Has the owner or building manager been contacted to educate their tenants on proper trash disposal? By ignoring the root issue, and not following up with some education so it won't happen again, nothing is really getting fixed... To mark this resolved / closed is misleading... Nothing was solved here in the bigger picture, which is what See Click Fix is all about...

way to go Geets your on fire:)
