Sizing Up the Situation:
First things first, be honest with yourself. Are you overflowing every week because you're a champion recycler (we salute you!), or is there a questionable amount of pizza box evidence hiding in there? ARR offers a variety of trash can sizes, so knowing your household's...ahem..."waste profile" is key.
Pro Tip: If you find yourself constantly shoving rogue trash bags back in like a Tetris master, it's probably time to size up.
Hurdles to the Landfill: There Are Rules, Y'all!
Now, before you go full-on Godzilla on your overflowing bin, there are a few hoops to jump through. ARR, bless their civic-minded hearts, has a couple of regulations:
QuickTip: Ask yourself what the author is trying to say.
- The 96-Gallon Challenge: You gotta prove your commitment to trash accumulation before they let you graduate to the big leagues. If you don't already have a 96-gallon bin, you'll need to start there.
- Recycling BFFs: Austin's got that whole "reduce, reuse, recycle" thing going on. So, for every trash can size you have, you gotta have the same size for recycling. Looks like it's time to up your recycling game too!
Conquering the Can Conundrum: How to Actually Get That Bigger Bin
Alright, you've assessed the trash flow, you've embraced the recycling life, now it's time for action! Here's your battle cry:
- Dial Up the Cavalry (or Rather, 512-494-9400): That's the number for Austin Resource Recovery. Give them a call and explain your trashy woes.
- Be Prepared for Fees: There might be a one-time fee for switching to a bigger bin, but hey, a small price to pay for trash tranquility.
Remember: Patience is a virtue, especially when dealing with bureaucracy. But with a little persistence, you'll be on your way to a waste-management victory!
