Your trash situation is still crazy, or nah?

Listen, if you live in Philly, you know what I’m talkin’ about. That wooder ice from John’s is good, but your trash sittin' out on the curb for days ain't. The latest 311 service request data shows "Rubbish/Recyclable Material Collection" is still one of the top issues folks are callin' about. I’m not even gonna hold you, this ain't new. My dad was talkin' about the city's trash problems when I was just a little jawn down in West Philly.

It’s the same old story, different day, and it tells you exactly what’s on people's minds when they hit up City Hall. When "Miscellaneous" is a top category, it just means people are calling about a bunch of random junk, but the trash? That's a consistent problem people can't ignore. You just walk down certain blocks in South Philly or even parts of Fishtown, and you'll see what I mean.

* **Top 311 Issue:** Rubbish/Recyclable Material Collection

* **What it means:** Your neighbors are fed up with their trash not getting picked up on time.

* **The real talk:** This ain't just about lookin' pretty; it's about public health and respect for our neighborhoods.

What are they gonna do about it, though? That’s the real question. We keep calling, and the numbers stay high. We gotta watch if the new administration tries some real different stuff, or if we just keep gettin' the same results.

That's the jawn, Philly — we don't do fake out here.

Kee.
