So they drove back again today to finish off the half-a$$ job they did yesterday.

It is a matter of incompetence? of not giving a shxt? or just plain old getting overwhelmed for one reason or another? I honestly don't know. But this service quality is definitely lacking.
Like last year they switched to every other week pickup for green bin for some random weeks in the winter. Seems very sudden and this message was not there last week. I know people who also said one side of the street was picked up and the other side still hasn't been picked up and won't be until next week.

"Important reminder: Green bin collection every second week

Until the end of February, green bin collection will occur every 2 weeks and will line up with your regular garbage day. Weekly green bin service will resume the week of March 4."
