Kansas City prepares to roll out new recycling carts
Nice!

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Trash day is going to change for thousands of Kansas City residents, and bag tags could be a thing of the past in about a year.

Supporters of the switches said it’s going to be a game-changer when it comes to keeping Kansas City clean.

Currently, people living inside Kansas City limits put trash in bags and place the bags at the curb. Recycling goes in a small, open bin next to the trash bags.

The problem is on windy days, recycling gets blown away and ends up all over the city. Animals can also rip open the plastic bags, leaving more trash to scatter in the wind. It’s a problem residents say they’ve seen for years.

“You can go around the neighborhood right now, and there’s someone who’s moved out of the house, and its thrown out there on the sidewalk,” Virginia Flowers, Vineyard Neighborhood Association, said.

“Our neighbors, if they forget to put their trash out, it sits out until maybe the next trash day. The animals tear it up and there it is.”

Kansas City Mayor Quinton Lucas said that will begin to change in about a month.

Last year, city council members approved a plan to spend $5.5 million and buy 160,000 recycling carts with lids. Part of this funding came from a $1.5 million grant.

Residents will begin receiving the free bins in the coming weeks.

“We have too much trash in Kansas City. We wanted to make sure that we were working actively to clean up more. One of the biggest problems is recycling with our open bins right now,” Lucas said.

“You see paper, everything blowing about neighborhoods every recycling day. This will help cut down on a lot of that waste that’s just going about the community, and it will allow people to recycle a lot more with this much larger bin.”

“The lid on the top is also very important to us,” City Manager Brian Platt said. “One of the challenges we’re seeing and noticing that’s causing some trash and litter on our streets is our recycling bins right now are open. When the wind blows the recycling just blows over the neighborhood.”

There are enough of the recycling carts for every home in Kansas City, but getting one of the new bins is not mandatory.

“I know a lot of people have said maybe ‘we have a small bungalow, we don’t want a bin this large.’ You can keep your old recycling bin, but they will be available for every single family residential home in Kansas City. That’s about 162,000,” Lucas said.

“We are getting them out and about. Thanks to our taxpayers who are helping fund this program. And this is just one part of our cleanup in KC.”

Another part of cleaning up the city’s trash problem is still in the works. Right now the city council hopes to provide similar trash bins for homeowners starting May 1, 2024.

“As we know, putting out trash bags on the curb as we do in Kansas City leads to dogs getting through, so many other things. As somebody who has diapers in the trash some time for my 2-year-old, I really don’t like picking it up if a dog’s gotten through before,” Lucas said.

“We have to clean this city up,” First District Councilman Kevin O’Neil said. “I mean it literally is the number one topic right behind violence in every neighborhood meeting I go to.”

Leaders said this is a part of an effort to keep the city clean, especially with major events headed our way.

“We want to make sure that as we’re doing big events in Kansas City — the NFL Draft, the World Cup in 2026, and events large and small in between — that we are building a cleaner city,” Lucas said.

“I think it would benefit our trash here. We would love to put them in there, put our trash in those bins and roll them out,” Flowers said.

The trash bins are expensive, according to Lucas, which is part of the reason why they are not available at the same time as the new recycling carts.

Lucas also hopes to expand the leaves and brush pick-up program and create a new program for household compost.

More information on how people can request the recycling carts will be released soon.

Even hood rats feel empathy for weakness. Looks like a geezer lives there.

They skip my house when they see the Murano and the ramp. It's the perfect front to deter theft.

Except it’s not really a front.

In some ways, I wish we had the ramp that was built for construction. We have a friend in a wheel chair. You would not believe what she had to have done---and her husband is a saint among men. I would rather have her wheel in than use her walker.

We put in a hand rail for her, but a ramp would be better. We go to their house a lot because of it.

We have coyotes in the cities plus dogs but the biggest pest that tears into the bags are Crows. ****ers are smart they know the days the trash is put out in the neighborhood. They flock in those areas you will hear them calling wait for the right moment. Don't **** with crows they remember you and will have a life long grudge against you.

If you're smart you keep a solution of water and Clorox in a spray bottle. Spray the bag and animals or crows will not disturb it.
You have idiots that put the bags of trash out the night before so the dogs and coyotes rip them up and eat from during the night. I've seen it happen too many times. People can be stupid.

Extra bags need to be tagged, which means purchasing the same excess trash tags that were necessary previously when placing more than two bags curbside. Cost is $2.50 per tag, and tags are available at Price Chopper and Westlake Hardware.

Not around here I bet. They basically pick up anything. They know the hood will be a landfill if they don't.

Wow look out for these scumbuckets.

Please be aware: "Kansas City disposal" came to our door a few weeks ago. Now we suddenly have a contract, bill and trash cans. We didn’t sign a contract. Canceled today, but had to really be pushy. Trash cans are still on our property, as of right now.

The same thing happened to me last night. They stopped by, I visited with the salesman with genuine interest on rates and switching from our current provider. By 8 pm, I had a signed contract in my email… that I never signed. Super shady business practice. They’ll never get a penny from me.

They did the same with a friend of mine in Raytown. Dumped off a trash container and sent a $71 bill that starts in June. Very shady

Texarkana was so trashy in the 1960s that it was completely rat infested. (I posted the tv news video on YouTube years ago.) To solve the problem, trash service is a line item on your water bill. They provide a regular trash can and a recycle trash can. Idiots still throw trash out of the car window, but the trash cans help.

Always found contractor bags solved the more than 2 bags of trash issue for me. Can usually get 4 - 5 bags of trash into a single contractor bag.

I can't remember if it's 40 or 60 lb weight limit in kcmo per bag. I never have seen it enforced though.
