Garbage Men

Private sanitation workers in New York City face heavy industry reform that will franchise garbage-collection areas to only "good" companies.

[@richie6921]

That woman thinks that all trashmen are dogs. That says more about her than it does about them. I've got nothing but respect for these guys. I look up to these guys

[@ibelovedme]

I think she means dogs as a womanizer. My friends that were garbage men had women by the tons. Not all GM but most.

[@recycleman975]

yeah many people disrespect us unfortunately

[@Hastalaverga420]

All of these high school drop outs are replaceable. In Louisiana when union drivers went on strike the prisoners did real load residential and were happy to make the $4 a week

[@saltyhumansWX]

I mean Firefighters are basically garbage man but they get the glory

[@DonnellPrince]

If food trucks stop delivering food to NYC she’ll be digging in a trash bag for food.

[@nicoleburrowes2589]

All jobs are equally important. Respect to all men and women that pick up garbage

[@recycleman975]

yeah because we need all jobs for a functional society

[@dggg5892]

You mean to tell me being a McDonald’s cook is equal to what these guys do? That’s a slap in the face. I was in the military and now do this. Judging by that ignorant comment I bet you work a useless job. JOBS ARE NOT EQUAL!

[@123theluvguru]

Young man saying if we don’t pick up the garbage who will? Good head on his shoulders

[@QNZSTREETFIGHT]

I really respect these guys mindset and their job.

[@earlobannion2915]

My Dad did this for 25 years since he was18 years old and did it well and I miss him till this day. I wanted so bad to follow in his foot steps so I agree respect these men and women who do this job because the politicians don't give a damn about these workers.

[@Flaming-wings]

Your father sacrificed his happiness and future so you could succeed. Make him proud and reach for the stars. Do better so your children can do better than you.

[@YamilMaeso]

Thank you so much

[@steallen4890]

These guys work really hard

[@legalizeweed3830]

My area has taken a strong recycling approach. Niagara Region in Ontario, Canada. We are allowed two bags or cans of garbage once every other week. Extra bags cost $2.50. They pick up recycling & food, and pet waste every week.

[@Dave-co1cv]

Here in sunny Florida, my neighborhood gets two trash pickups per week and recycling once per week. 12 pickups every 28 days.

[@gmoney7780]

The job isn't easy.....Very demanding & physical but the rewards are unmatched! God Bless all sanitation workers..

[@matthewbreese6246]

12 hours a night 💀. Damn

[@taylordiaz6328]

We start our route at 7, don't get done til 5, standard amount of trash is about 14 tons a day

[@joegaito702]

Just hard working men buy them a soda or something they deserve alot of credit for keeping the city clean your service is deeply appreciated thanks don't work to hard love and appreciate you guys you guys rock ! Joe

[@indiopeltier9758]

I like how the truck just spills garbage out the back, ha

[@HoodGrownGenius]

Every man has to do his/her part! 🌎

[@recycleman975]

yeah because it also affects how we work what people do with their waste affecrs our condition when they obey all the guidelines it's easier for us to do our job when they disobey us it's harder to work some common examples people leaving garbage outside the trashcan this makes it harder for us when they don't leave them outside it's easier for us when they make their bins too heavy also affects our job in a negative way we put pressure on our bodies when the trashcans are heavy when they do not throw any forbidden materials it's easy for our job without putting pressure on our selves some materials are forbidden in trashcans like building materials heavy furniture heavy branches vehicle parts rocks sand dirt gravel balls etc those objects make the bins extremely heavy and for us is very hard to deal with it and we put so much pressure on ourselves that's why we prohibit them so people should do their part to make our conditions easier and safer

[@mattysquizzato7094]

Man, I wish we rolled at night. I'm sitting here at 530am, and it's supposed to be 92F out 2day! God Bless you guys in the NYC!

[@peteroberts3273]

Vic, Garbageman #1: The question here is garbage. Who picks up this mess? Mr. Rumsfield: Who picks up this mess? Well you're going to pick up this mess, because YOU are a garbage man. Vic, Garbageman #1: I pick up garbage from the cans, not out of the streets! Quotes from the Burbs, love that movie. Thanks guys for all your hard work!
