>FYI Rhode Island doesn’t recycle glass anymore so don’t bother with that

Wow! First I've heard of this ... so I shouldn't put glass in recycling anymore? Not that much comes in glass anymore 😣

I was walking my dog one recent morning at about the same pace as the garbage (non-recyclables) truck was picking up. And at several stops, the guy riding on the back also dumped the contents of the blue bins into the garbage truck. Must admit I was shocked 😣

> If you can't afford to tip decently, then you shouldn't be eating out. Thoughts?

If you can't pay your employees a wage so they don't have to rely on tips, something not mandatory, then you shouldn't open a restaurant.

I go to chomp a lot. there "home made" ketchup is terrible. I always ask for real ketchup and the waiters or waitresses always chuckle in agreement how no one likes it. but there ranch on the other hand is amazing.

If you’re getting Burgers at Chomp you’re doing it wrong! It’s all about the Chicken Sandwiches 🔥.

Fyi most PVD (although not all) recycling cans have a BLUE top dating to the original retrofit when they introduced single stream recycling. And since most houses have one can I’d disagree there’ll be a lot of room. Multi fam houses have more cans since it’s 1 can per unit but there’s no guarantee they’ll be curbside unless there’s something in it if not already largely filled. . FYI Rhode Island doesn’t recycle glass anymore so don’t bother with that. So not a perfect plan but better than chucking it all in the garbage. Most of the green bins are just garbage and defeat the point of the drive/time/effort from nP.

Highly unlikely you will find anything under 1000 but central falls and Pawtucket tend to have cheaper apartments. Lofts 125 studio apartment 1250

This is correct. In most municipalities, anything over 4 units falls outside of the city or town’s responsibility to collect trash and recycling.

That being said, they are required by law to contract with a recycling company. If they don’t offer this option to you, they are in violation. You can call DEM to report it. I’d also call the town as suggested.

Do they make their own? Ketchup is one of those interesting food products where the "artisanal" version is actually inferior to standard Heinz or whatever

I mean, why have 'Gansett on the menu if you're going to act appalled when someone orders it? Just take it off the menu and do craft beer only.

If they live in an apartment complex it's probably not town trash pickup, it's a private contract. I know in Providence the city only provides trash pickup to buildings up to 3 (or 4 maybe) units in size.

No matter what color bin you throw it in it's likely to end up in a landfill anyways. China has slowed down on buying our bulk recycling.

lol!

Looks like a nice town. I'll take a look at it. Thanks!

Any towns in particular or are all of them pretty much the same? I guess if I look in the subs then safety would be the first factor I'd consider since most of my activities/anything I'll potentially do will be in the city

I would try calling the main city hall number if you haven't already to try and force the complex to get bins. Given the city says they don't collect trash from residences without recycling bins that'd get your landlord to shape up quick, if you were ever able to get through to someone. Idk how much effort you want to go to but you could always try showing up in person, sometimes that's the only way that works https://northprovidenceri.gov/public-works/recycling-refuse/total-participation-recycling-program/

A lot of towns have recycling drop-offs at the town DPW. I can’t find any reference to that for NP - maybe being so close they just assume folks will drive to RIRRC?

The small vehicle area can handle recycling drop off for RI residents.

Glad someone said it. That shit is dismal.

Drive a few blocks into your bordering Providence neighborhood on trash day and leave your recycling in a random green can at some house. Providence residents are terrible at recycling, so there will be plenty of room in there.

Daily. This question gets asked daily between PVD and RI subreddits. It's like those workplace accident signs but "0 days since a relocating post."

Im sure she tried to tag and reach out to others. I doubt anyone of them would’ve even wasted the effort of calling the restaurant

100% agree, going out is a luxury now. Tip generously or stay home.
