Then you’re going to see the characters walking around. Boy oh boy you will see. You will experience things that you never seen in the village. It’s going to look like Hackensack, Paterson, barrage long as it doesn’t look like Hamden that shit hole. Things you will see. !!!!

the fly has learned recycling just ends up in the dump …

fly-on-wall

…the fly has learned that since the pandemic, the Village of Ridgewood suspended all recycling to all restaurants . The town is no longer picking up any recycling to these establishments.

All recycling is going to the dump. When you drop off recycling at the Recycling center or the recycling is picked up in front of your house, it’s now just a scam and goes to the dump.

Ridgewood is no longer making money on most recycled product, which is mostly cans, bottles etc. Everything going to the landfill as our regular garbage…
