If our trucks could talk, December would fill a whole diary. So here’s a peek inside a C&C Disposal truck’s “private thoughts” during the busiest—and most chaotic—month of the year.
Day 1: The Closet Cleanout
Someone gave me 14 sweaters, a broken blender, and a bag of old Halloween candy. None of which belong in regular trash. A strong start.
Day 7: The Cardboard Avalanche
I met roughly 62 boxes at one stop today. Cardboard is recyclable… but not when it’s inside the bin, outside the bin, and stacked like a Jenga tower.
Day 12: The Glitter Event
One bag. One catastrophic glitter bomb. I will be sparkling until spring.
Day 17: The Mystery Bag
This one clanked, sloshed, and rattled. Please avoid mystery bags. They’re dangerous for crews and machinery.
Day 23: The Recliner Attempt
Someone tried to sneak a whole recliner next to the bin. I appreciate the ambition, but bulk pickup must be scheduled.
Day 28: The Year-End Purge
Everyone decided to start fresh for January. I’ve seen items today that defy description.
Moral of the Story
Your trash truck loves you, but December is wild. A little preparation makes a big difference for safe, efficient collection.
