E 352 � Weare satisfied with the currant system.However we would oppose the proposed pay as you go system. 8112/2015 6:00 PM 353 its a travesty there is no curbside trash collection 8/1212015 5:5 9 PM ............. . ..... 354 We have a residence in mashpee that is our second home.The transfer station is a plus.It meets our limited needs 811212015 5:59 PM and 1 feel is a model operation straight forward and run efficiently. 355 i It is clean and appears to be well managed.The people are friendly and always off to help. 8/12/2015 5:58 PM 356 I very easy and efficient operation.Sing4e stream recycling is a plus i 8/1212015 5:42 PM 357 1 wish once a week it would open at 6:30 so I could go before work but I realize that is a fantasy 8112!2015 5:40 PM 611212015 5:38 PM 358 Outstanding service! 359 i 8112/2015 5:32 PM works for me ; 360 The present system is user-friendly and simple.The transfer station is very organized.I like the single stream process. ' 8112!2015 5:30 PM It's meaningful and worthwhile to provide the bottle container for the benefit of our Veterans. 361 Too expensive 811212015 5:29 PM 1 362 ! Warks well.Don't break it! 8/1212015 5:24 PM 363 I like being able to use the transfer station for disposal of trash,recycling,yard waste and bulky Items.I am opposed to j 8112/2015 5:24 PM pay as you throw.I would rather pay more for use of the transfer station 1111 364 I In general yes I am happy with the services at the Transfer station....2 things bother me--I don't like how the guys will 8112/2015 5:22 PM irun that big machine with the concrete block to tamp down the trash while people are right there throwing their bags i into the trailer.And there's a young woman&a boy who hang around sometimes,and the boy climbs over everything. 3 It seems dangerous to me;the kid could fall into the trailer of trash.I sold something to one guy who works there and he told me that the boy is the grandson of the guy who runs the dump. 365 Although there is only my wife and],we have a lot of summer guests producing 5 or mare trash bags a week(July 811 212015 5:22 PM and August).The rest of the year we only use 1 or 2 per week. 3 366 The proposal to go to new system sounds like a goad idea.I am disappointed in that a fuller explanaition as to what 811212015 5:19 PM 1l The costs will be to the resident using it,I have seen figures About bags being purchased and the cost.There has been No translation as the combined cost of the dump fee and The actual cost of the bags.Will we see a reduction In i the fee we pay now?When added together wltl we Save money or is a cosi increase what we will see.No one has that clear. f 367 ; this summer we also used a weekly trash pickup service, f 112 12015 5:16 P i . _ 368 1i we would accept pay as you throw.it provides a fairer cost structure for actual use.we shouldn't subsidize those who 8/1212015 5:15 PM i use the station less efficiently or with more material at the same annual cost we do however accept paying our fair share for the schools,although we have no children In town. 369 ! t think there should be a swap shop or at least an area for trading furniture as there used to be.Other towns have i 81120015 5:14 PM swap shops and it reduces trashing things others could use. 370 clean,neat,organized and helpful employees 811 21201 5 5:10 25132
