Unpredictable Trash Service In Limerick Prompts Changes, Co. Says

LIMERICK, PA - A trash and recycling service that operates throughout Limerick issued an apology statement to customers Friday, noting that it is working through a “multi-faceted” solution for “predictable” service.

A.J. Blosenski Trash & Recycling Service said it is currently reevaluating routing for optimization and has hired over a dozen new drivers “that will be ready to go in the next two weeks,” according to the statement.

In the interim, the AJ Blosenski team has recruited 15 current employees from across the country to assist with service issues.

“We are also working on various long-term solutions behind the scenes, such as reconfiguring many of our routes that will decrease the service interruptions and restore service back to the level to which our customers are accustomed in the near future,” the servicer said.

“We appreciate any grace you can extend to [workers] during this stressful time.”

Some Limerick-area residents noted on social media that Friday’s letter was a sign of progress.

“Trash and recycle picked up as normal this morning. It was sporadic and annoying at times over the past several weeks, but I’m glad to see that they are acknowledging their customer base and I’m hopeful things will shift back to a normal pickup routine in the near term,” one user wrote.

Others seemed less pleased by the sentiment, with some already stating that they’ve made the switch to other providers.

“To little to late. We all switched already,” another social media user wrote.
