Trash collection in the city of Pittsburgh for private residences and small businesses are provide for free by the City of Pittsburgh. With that in mind, I will take an advantage of that. Every 2 weeks, recycling is collected, but they no longer allow placing your recyclables in trash bags. Instead, you have to put everything in recycle coded trash cans. This is a big impact as most of my trash is recyclable. This will especially be true for when I throw out my shredded paper that would have to be taken out when the bin gets full.
