I chatted with the Sound Room guy, Robert, and verified Waste Management has a key to the building's storied trash room the Sound Room uses, and that there should be space for our bins too. So, I am emailing George and Laurie about access to this trash room, as we do not have the option of locking our trash bins individually, so that they won't be gone through and made a mess of blah blah blah. ---------------------- Also.
