Life is easier when county axes recycling bins


January 17, 2012 · Updated 11:04 AM 

I’d like to thank the person or persons that decided that recycling bins were no longer needed at the dump. This will make my mob much easier.

Silly me, I have been separating my cans, bottles and newspaper so I can deposit them in recycle containers, so I don’t put them into the garbage as that would add to the burden at the landfill. Now I won’t have to do that anymore. I’ll just put it all in the landfill garbage.

I live outside of Enumclaw and do not have curbside pickup service, so now I’ll just dump all my waste in the landfill. It will make my job much easier as I won’t have to sort it.

Every time I go to the dump there are lots of vehicles stopped at the recycle bins filling the bins, so I know they are being sued. I guess that doesn’t make any difference.

Thanks again for making my job easier.
