I agree in general but I guess they could theoretically do it overnight... Would be hard on people who already have a tough job though and I assume the pay would not increase as compensation for working the night shift.

I have a toddler, I get woken up 2-3x every night. I also live off a bus route with a road currently covered by a metal plate with a hole beneath it....my life is already filled w a sad amount of sleeplessness that I'm now remembering is not normal.

Okay so for the record, there is trash and recycling pickup every weekday, not just Monday. The workforce they would have to have to get it all done one day of the week for a city this size would be insane.

Night work isn't likely for both the reasons you mentioned and because people would go apeshit over the noise.

Sorry for not being clear but I did mean overnight every day. Kind of like how in Boston they do street sweeping overnight in certain areas. I didn't think about the noise though! Good point. Also dang the number of downvotes I got for one slightly misguided idea is hilarious. It's just a conversation, jeez.
