Houston proposes monthly recycling fee amid delays

Houston's recycling program is facing delays and complaints due to missed pickups, attributed to the city's rapid growth outpacing the Solid Waste Management Department's capacity.

Recycling? They DON'T really recycle; it still ends up in the landfill.... Prove me wrong.

Houston needs to divorce Mis. Management, she’s been cheating on you for so long the whole country knows.

we rank 39/50 for highest property tax in this country, only 11 states are higher. you got enough money. make it work

It’s not just green cans being left for weeks but also regular trash

[plnkfloydian]

I just throw everything in the trash nowadays. Most of everything put in recycling bin never gets recycled so what’s the purpose aside from eating up time and energy

[rahulshah]

This is how to piss off people fast. To go from 15 to 40 and say it’s based on other cities makes the point. They don’t know what they need and base the fee off of that. They want the money first and then spend it.

Come pick up your green can, I didn't ask for it in the first place.

[PenelopePitstop]

Well, I hope this Director has his budget & spending house in order. The water director is gone, the HHA director is gone. Will this one be gone soon, too?

[soulciti]

People dump their trash without even attempting to separate, reduce, or compact it, acting like it's someone else's problem once it's out on the curb. It’s crazy the 4th largest US city lacks an advanced recycling system. Japan and Germany set a far higher standard, making the U.S. approach look like something from the 1950s
