Does anyone know why there has been no basura collected by the ASEO in over a week?

Someone in a previous post suggested the garbage
truck was broken down. My neighbours employed a private individual to haul away his and our garbage.

From what I learned from Mexican friends they are
simpley too lazy. Not sure, just what I was told.

Don't think that is the situation! We have had service, but delayed for the last week or so, but they came! I heard it was a truck down!

You can always pack it up and take it to the large containers, always one or two down from Josito's ferateria, or however you spell it!

Ask Gustavo, who supervises the refueling of the trucks when he gets the money from La Huerta. With the rise in gas prices, perhaps there aren't enough funds available for regular service? Quien sabe? My neighborhood's trash was finally collected a few days ago, after several weeks of no pickup whatsoever.

I have had garbage pickup maybe six times in four months--and that was with giving a propino the first time they came. I've heard the same stories the rest of you have . . . truck broken down, gas prices gone up. I've practically begged them twice when I've seen them in the early mornings. Once they came the next day. The other time they didn't.

told me they would no longer come up my steep driveway, to steep!!!!! so now my neighbor leaves her can at the bottom of the hill for the neighborhood dogs to rummage through and disperse accordingly...

so, to break a decades long inspiration, no tip from me...

Since I don't have a lot of trash, I take mine to the jardin

I lived in a community once that had a private garbage collection service. You bought tags from the company and put one on each can or bag collected.

The Delegado here could sell tags or stickers for, say, 10 pesos each. Money for gas, repairs and decent wages for the workers.

To not discourage locals from using the service, provide collection service for full timers free.

One of the trucks is broken down that is why they cannot get to all the garbage daily like they usually do. That is what I was told at the Delegacion.

The clutch on the orange truck was broken and has been repaired. We brought our "wet stuff" down to the large boxes, where the little truck could take it away. A little inconvenience in Paradise.
