Recyling service

I see the discussion about garbage options. All seem similar enough.

My question is in regards to recycling. There is a cardboard dumpster at DPW yard which is great. However, the general pick up of once every two weeks is not sufficient for me. Sometimes it is even further apart if a holiday conflicts the pick up date.

Are there any private options for recycle pick ups more frequently that anyone knows of?

Also, I wonder why DPW yard can't have a can/bottle dumpster as well. Thoughts?

I pay $82.68, 96 gal, twice a week from Republic for 3 months- they raised it from $75.00 six month ago. You have to bargain a little - but try not to switch because they get you with the startup fees

For recycling the town would have to pay if they had plastic and glass. The cardboard is there because cutting up cardboard would be a waste of man hours and since it's there already residents can use it as well.
There is also a metal recycling dumpster and the town gets money from scrap so I do take my large metal items to the DPW yard.
