This company is the biggest joke of all time. Our recycle is bi weekly it was missed 2 times in a row so we called to have it picked up since it was missed and they told us it would be picked up Friday. Friday came and it wasn’t picked up. I called again and they told me Monday. Monday comes and it isn’t picked up again. I call again on Tuesday and they tell me it would be picked up Thursday. Thursday comes and guess what? it was not picked up again!!

Just got the new 2025 recycling schedule in our Ravenna city water bill. Going over it I found out that we have to call to find out what to do with shredded paper. Up until now residents were instructed under the "Paper Newspaper Junk Mail Magazines and Receipts heading: *These can be placed in the recycling bin. For shredded paper please place it in a paper bag and clearly mark it with "SHREDDING".* I called and found out we can no longer place it in our recycling bin we have to take it to the recycling center in BRIMFIELD ourselves. We live in downtown Ravenna and I asked if there was anyplace closer or an alternate drop off site and was told no. Then I was told to throw it out in our regular trash which we have to pay for separately. This absolutely defeats the purpose of recycling which we PAY for with our Water Sewer and Curbside BILL. The recycling center also has extremely limited days and hours for dropping off recyclables that residents are forced to take to them. **Note: So far we have no issues with the employees who take care of our curbside pickup.**

We pay for recycling however they expect me to clean up trash that the recycling guys leave behind. Tried to call and speak with someone because I have to live here and she says as a good neighbor I should of helped pick up the trash. I’m not a city worker. Why are we paying you if we have to clean up behind you? Make it make sense!!
