Shelby County Admin & Finance

On monday January 5, 2009 on my pick up day. Someone removed my trash can. I cannot say someone stole the green trash container. Why? Because the workers do not put the trash containers back. You might find your trash container 3 houses down. I called and received a claim number for the stolen container/missing container. It is January 26,2009 and I still have not received my trash container. When I called on the 5th of January the gentelman told me it will be 10 days. I guess 10 days have not yet arrived. This is crazey. Now, if you put trash in trash bags and pill them up at the curve. The local stray dogs and cats will have trash everywhere. When I get off from work I do not want to pick up a mess. I am a female. When I get off from work its dark outside. I moved to Memphis from Nashville. I have never had to wait this long to receive a trash container.
