Rant on Rockwall

[Frank]

Just finished building a house in the county. I am surrounded by city, but my street is county. Everything is a hassle. Street addresses are 1630, 1640, 2343, 2307, 2249...WTF would they do this? The numbers are all jacked up.

So neighbors up and down the street pay the CITY of Rockwall for trash pickup and they get a can...even though they are county. I call to get the service and get a run around telling me they don't service my street. I point out to them that my neighbors on either side of me have the service right now, yet they tell me "I am the cutoff" but can't tell me what that means. It seems that these other houses, having existed for 10 years or more, supposedly had building permits and that is how they have a record to bill them. BUT, we're all county and no building permits are required. They claim they do not have a way to bill me for the service. I call up two company's suggested IESI and Allied and they want to charge between $240 -$252 a year for trash pickup. Does this sound reasonable? Apparently, there are 3 different trash companies handling service on a street less than a half mile long.

That's pretty fargon expensive aside form the fact that they may be goin outta their way to provide you services.

Leave your trash in the neighbors front yard.

My pickup is 20 bucks a month

Fort Worth
Code Service Description Amount
GA SANITATION $17.75

So $213 a year for me.

So that charge doesn't seem extreme.

This or, go talk to a neighbor and ask how much it costs for an extra trash can, pay them for it and just start putting it out, oh and don't ask me how I know this works.

Just put your trash in a neighbors can. They will never notice just be sure you use the same color bags and divide the recyclables.

Or just get a can similar to theirs and just put it on the curb them fuckers will never know and they will pick it up.
