I think it's still can-only. But they gotta do something soon. I had to pay a landscaper to take seven bags of yard waste that Groot won't take.

get out. We were all told that anything that doesn't fit in the cans wouldn't be picked up so we never bothered

That’s only for garbage and recycling. As long as you had it in a lawn bag they pick it up with a sticker on it. Who told you that?

The village sent me two emails saying do not put anything outside of the cans for pickup. They didn't make any kind of exception or mention of yard waste.

I don’t call the village they have given me wrong information before. I always call the trash company directly.

Check vniles. com. all info is there. Since we are now wearing masks, I would guess the trash pick up will be without loose items.

No loose items. They didn’t take a chair we left by our garbage can.

that's what we thought, but very little metal. It was not a stainless steel model or tub. The new one is :)

Not picking up lose items or household items. Suggest you call Groot, maybe you can arrange a special pickup

From Village website: As a reminder, garbage collection by Groot will continue as usual. However loose items that are not in a bag or cart will NOT be accepted at this time. Furniture and other large items must NOT be placed curbside at this time.
