However, this was a new process and the worker assigned to our route was still working out some of the bugs.
His first time picking up our trash can, he crushed it.
The can wasn't a total loss. The back was cracked in several places but it still held together. For a while. The sections of plastic started breaking off. It took a couple years, but eventually the entire back of the trash can was missing. When the stray cats started feasting on our garbage, it was time to take things seriously.
One month later...Duck tape just isn't what it used to be.

Every now and then the garbage truck literally eats our garabage can. We just call the wate management folk and they bring us out a shiny, new can. Will yours not replace what they broke?
Yuck. I say if they're going to have trucks like that, they need better garbage cans!
that's how both our trucks are and they have never hurt our trash can....and why won't they just deliver you a new can???? I don't get it?
Oh duct tape, how are we ever supposed to trust you again?
I'll trade you - I'm on a dead end, and the truck basically ruined my driveway using it to back up in :( !
Sorry for your loss....But I bet you are the most popular homeowner in the neighborhood with the animals.
Our city also just gives you a new can if the old one is damaged...no questions asked. Try calling the city to find out the procedure. :)
PS. I bet my grandson will LOVE this post!
Yikes! You should send this photo to the garbage people and request a new one!
