I have been a las vegas resident for 32 years, and this is the first time i have run into this problem. I have my garbage can in front of my home for three (3) weeks now, and it has not been picked up. As you can understand , after three weeks of puting garbage into it, it is a little heavy by now. But, they can use the mashine they have always used in the past to do it. It's not like it can't be done. They stop shake it a little , see that it is heavy, and leave it there. But that is not all. Pight across of my home, in front of a house, there are at least 15 garbage bags, piling up to the sky, and they won't pick up those either. It seems they pick up only the small garbage cans and bags, not over 30 lbs. I must assume, that this is another job americans won't do, even though they get paid very handsomely for it. I have complained of this problem 3 times in the last 3 weeks, by calling the republic services, and leaving an e-mail, to no avail. The garbage are still sitting out there. Maybe you can do something, but i have my doubts, since they are working for the city. Let's see!
