Article: San Jose Mercury News, Calif., Action Line column: Trash rules vary based on where residents live.

Byline: Dennis Rockstroh

Jul. 27--Q It's not nice to confuse an old guy.

To wit, according to the new garbage company's printed material, my pickup day will change to Tuesday and not remain on Monday, where it has been for years.

Further, you mentioned that the yard trimmings should be placed in the street.

Well, we have been given new large size containers for yard trimmings, so I assume the days of placing the cuttings in the street are over.

Now, I do live in unincorporated San Jose if that may make a difference.
