Fixed, and a neighbour went back to check.

Someone from this neighbourhood walked past on April 7 and confirmed the work was done, 15 days after you reported it. That is the loop closed by the people who live here.

Marked resolved Apr 7, 9:06 PM

Closed, on the record

Fixed in 15 days.

Richmond Street West in Spadina-Fort York is a little better today because somebody said something, neighbours stood behind it, and the city finished the work. That is how this is supposed to work.

This street's story: Collection runs on a schedule, so a bin that overflows once tends to overflow again on the same day of the week.

The case we sent

Report details · AI-written, reviewed by the reporter

Multiple commercial garbage and recycling bins are overflowing with trash scattered across the alley, creating an unsanitary condition and blocking access. According to the reporter, these bins haven't been collected in at least 8 months, allowing debris and waste materials to accumulate at ground level and pose health and pest risks.

In the alley behind bluetile (not sure if it’s theres or not) there are several trash and recruiting bins that are overflowing and haven’t been picked up in at least 8months of observation.
