Lara,
Thank you, that is wonderful!
It's not a biggie but I wonder if Mark would mind coming a day or two before Tuesday, or better yet, twice per week? Only of course if that is not an imposition. I say this cause I've noticed our recycling usually overflows well before Tuesday (trash / recycling is currently picked up weds. AM)
If he came twice per week I think that would really take care of us. If that happened, it would be easier for us to dedicate bins for 'pre-sorting', ie dedicate one bin for glass, another to cans etc. because we wouldn't run out of space. Whereas since we currently do run out of space in the bins, currently every bin gets filled with whatever type of recycling will fit into it.
It also means we woukd get dedicated smaller bins around the building for recycling specific things.

Hey all,
My friend Mark came today to get cardboard & glass, etc. He's a really sweet guy, he's happy to leave things behind if people want specific bottles (just leave a sign or something in the trash area.) He's very respectful, he used to pick up recycling weekly at a restaurant I
worked at that closed down. He is also down for others coming to collect bottles, will not be possessive of the task. As he said wisely, "it builds community." I introduced him to a few people who were around and he is committing to come every Tues. between 4-5PM with his truck.
Say hi, he's really chill and has amazing stories about his many years in the Bay Area...and hopefully our recycling area will be a little more manageable.
