D&O Garbage & Recycling

D&O Garbage always goes the extra mile, most recent on the Fourth of July. The night before, I set out the grey garbage and meant to set out the green (overflowing) yard debris at the curb to be hauled away as scheduled. The blue recycling bin was scheduled for pick up the following week. The problem was that I had mistakenly filled the recycling bin with yard debris, and vice versa. In the dark, I placed the bin with yard debris at the curb, but did not notice it was in the blue recycling bin.
In the morning, the yard debris truck drove on by, properly leaving my blue recycling bin for next week. Later that morning, I discovered my error. As I was switching the full contents of the yard debris to be hauled away next week, another D&O truck came. The driver asked what I was doing. When he found out I needed my yard debris emptied, he said the yard debris truck had already been by, and he could not empty the yard debris in his truck, because he was hauling garbage.
But, he said he would try to get the yard debris truck to come back by and empty that bin, so it would not remain full for another week. A few minutes later, the truck came back to haul away the correctly contents of my correctly filled yard debris. Yay!
For more than 35 years they’ve hauled away from my house whatever I have properly set out for them. How grand that they came back to haul away even what I messed up. And, how grand that they hauled anything away on the Fourth of July.
