You should start or join your village’s Facebook page. As soon as the District posted about trash pickup yesterday we all knew about it.

Also go to the districtgov.org website and sign up for notifications.

This thread shows that there was a glitch in communicating whether trash collection was to be performed today. There is a need for that info, and it certainly was not met by TheVillages.net website which clearly stated last night that the collection for certain districts would be as scheduled today. If you miss the scheduled pickup in our area (Occurs around 6:30 AM), you are stuck until next Tuesday. So out goes the trash. To change that schedule today for today's pickup certainly means that someone let us down. They knew what today's weather was going to be days ago. Nothing changed but their schedule. I wonder if they called up their employees today after 7 AM to tell them no work today.

Perhaps they should rethink their process. Wouldn't hurt to have their customers get the info.

Wish I could change the system for you, however, readers here cannot do that. Why not share your concerns with district Government?

OMG, 3 pages of replies over a simple yes or no question that was answered. Most of them repeating answers that have already been posted. SMH

Agree.

Everyone was locked up today.

Too rainy for dog poop.
No one driving around for white crosses.
No one driving around & hitting gates.
No one dining out.

Let's talk trash.

Sadly, it's like this every day. TOTV is a post only board.

We’re in CDD 11 and trash in our neighborhood (St James) was understandably not picked up yesterday. Some folks put trash out and others didn’t. Thank you to those of you who posted helpful updates.

[Dotneko]

Its my fault. I cooked fish tuesday thinking that we can make it to Thursday for the trash pick up. Now, it has to sit until next Monday. What do you all do to keep the ants out of the bag in the garage? We double bag and spray, but I think they like the spray.

[HeleneGB]

It will be Saturday.
