| 40 years after other cities in USA, NYC finally has standard trash bins |
| 2024-07-10 |
| [MSN - NYPost] Mayor Eric Adams declared the Big Apple a has-bin city Monday; unveiling its first official individual trash container that will soon be required for all small residential buildings, including brownstones. Structures with one to nine residential units will have to put their trash into any container starting Nov. 12, Adams said. Then within seven months, by June 1, 2026, those buildings will have to pay for and use the new roughly $50 lidded, rolling cans, dubbed the NYC Bin. ------------------------- The Sanitation Union had blocked this for all those decades. Atlanta GA adopted the 18 gallon bin standard in the early 1970s and by 2012 had augmented that with 96 gallon cart/bins for 4 plexes and so on. |
