The last pick up round they said to leave your cans out by 10am on Saturday. We put them out Friday night because we were going away for the weekend and when we came home on Sunday they were still there.

We've been hanging onto garbage bags full of empties all summer for "bottle drives" that never grab out bottles. At least the bottle pickers in the alley show some hustle.
My kid hustles for bottles to support his solo sport. I'm happy to come by and pick them up with him from you at any time. I'll pick up bottles from anyone willing to donate to his sport.

He's a track and field athlete with CALTAF and is competing on a national level at both track and cross country.

IF anyone has bottles the are holding onto We will gladly come by and take them.
