 Macon-Bibb Lottery

approved by

Macon - Bibb Commissioners

I recall that just a few years ago the Board of Commissoners approved a New Trash Pick Up Service for us, the Citizens of Macon - Bibb!  We now rely on the Ryland Environmental to remove our Trash here in West Macon-Bibb.  This it to happen on a Weekly basis on every Thursday.  Household Hold Trash Every week!  This is to take away the contents of the "Red Box" as I call them.  Others refer to them as the Curby Derby!


Then on an every other week time frame the  contents of the "Blue Box" is to be removed!

On the weeks when the "Blue Box" is not emptied the "Yard Trash" which is usually piled up near the curb is to be hauled away.  I usually use



the small container on "Yard Trash" day, however when the windy weather causes fairly large limbs to fall I also pile them up at the Curb.  Please know that the Small Container labeled "ACE" has been at the curb for over a week.  Just last week, the week of August 14 I thought this small container would be picked up.  A few weeks ago I recall that Ryland picked up the "Blue Boxes" and the Yard Trash on the same week in the Neighborhood so I am now confused.  Thus the title of this post:

Macon - Bibb Lottery

During prior weeks when the Trash Service has not been up to part I have relied on the County Commissioner who represents the area I live in to contact Ryland!  From My point of view this is redundancy at its finest.  No resident of Macon - Bibb should have to resort to their respective Commissioner to resolve any Trash Situation.

Therefore starting this week, the week of August 18 I am placing all of the Boxes along with the Yard Trash, either in Containers or piled at the curb.  It will be like playing the Lottery.  On Thursday evening I will have the opportunity to see which trash has been removed.
