Decluttering Continues

Before Waste Management switched to a recycling bin with a lid, we asked for a larger recycling container than the open bins we had at the time. They just gave us one that was exactly like the trash bin, but with a huge sticker on the top saying recycling. Anyway, the switch to a recycle bin happened, leaving us with the open bins and the second large bin with the sticker just taking up a lot of space in the garage.

R. finally called WM and asked them to pick it up. This morning, a Ryder truck came by and picked up the large bin and the open bins that R. had stacked on top along with a note saying please take these too if you can.

The garage is now so spacious! A. is saying that there is space for new stuff (especially since the kick scooters are out of the way). I'm threatening to buy an electric motorcycle (I won't, actually, because I can read health statistics and I am paranoid. Also, my death wish these days is weak and my thrill seeking has found entirely other outlets. Yeah, you think financial stuff is boring. Ha ha ha ha ha.).

But mostly, I'm thinking that now would be a good time to sweep and/or shop vac all those leaves and other things out of the garage. Which is a much less fun thought.

Call would be metaphorical. I used their web page to make a service request.

There's a brand new little shop vac in the basement.
