Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing
this
letter in reference to drawing your attention to the
garbage
collection issue which we have been facing for almost two weeks. I am a resident of Avenue 23, there are two
garbage
bins
are located at both ends of the road. Usually, the municipality
truck
used to come and pick up the
bins
on daily basis but due to road repair work going on at the entrance of Avenue 23,
this
big
truck
is not able to access the area. The situation is getting worse day by day because the
bins
are full and overflowing. Many nearby houses’ residents are complaining about the smell which is coming out of the rotten trash.
Also
,
this
has created an unhygienic condition for the local people and especially for the children whose playground is closed to one of the
bins
. The
truck
allocated for
this
area is quite big in size and due to narrow access, it is unable to pass the construction area to approach
garbage
bins
.
However
,
this
can be solved if you could arrange a smaller vehicle.
Also
, these can be resolved if you send some labour to carry these
garbage
bins
outside and from there pick up
truck
can take care of them. I hope you would ack immediately so tackle with current circumstances. Yours faithfully, Pradip Kumar
