Trash Complaints in Manchester

An official with the city's garbage hauler said a supervisor will be assigned to monitor service amid continued complaints. The District Manager of IESI said the number of complaints reported about service is high, but some of the complaints may be linked to the large number of yard waste pickups recently. Alderman Marilyn Ottenad said she had received about 20 complaint calls within the last two weeks about trash service. Complaints include rude drivers, trash not being picked up and debris scattered in the streets.

At past meetings, residents have also complained about lost and damaged garbage cans and pickups being overlooked. The District Manager said he will be at all board meetings in the near future to answer any questions about the company's service.
