[QUOTE="skeeter, post: 476029, member: 439"] yup - Thursday is "picker" night. We've taken to separating stuff so they don't have to go through all of ours. The only time we were pretty strong about what they were taking was when we put the aluminum windows from the sun room out (we completely redid it). We didn't want someone breaking the glass and only taking the aluminum. We put out one window and watched for someone to stop. When they did, we told them we had another 15 windows out back, and they were welcome to them all, but they had to take them as is, with the glass in them. We even helped load the truck. Since we have curb side recycling, it's illegal to go through the recycling bins for cans, etc. But anything else is fair game. It often seems to me that the guys driving the trucks would spend more on gas than what they are picking up. [/QUOTE]
