Due to the ongoing strike by workers at Republic Services, garbage is piling up in several areas, including Bellevue.

The company provided customers with the option of dropping off their trash at the Bannerwood Parking Lot, located at 1790 Richards Road on Tuesday. That location was open again Wednesday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.

However, a daycare told they’d have to rent a truck to get their bags of dirty diapers to the drop-off site.

“I’d have to glove up and go in there and get it out,” a daycare worker said.

成人X站 host Gee Scott cited a Facebook post his friend wrote to share his frustrations.

“Republic Services, please come pick up this trash. I don’t care about what y’all got going on, between my dad, kids, and myself 鈥攅verything is backed up over here. Pay these people because now I’m gonna go to random places. I’m over it,” Gee shared on “The Gee and Ursula Show” on 成人X站 Newsradio.

Republic Services offers to collect double regular amount

Republic Services told customers it would collect double their regular amount of trash and recycling when service resumes at no additional charge.

Customers will also receive a service credit on their upcoming bill.
