Since the first of July, we have had sporadic pick-ups. Our schedule has been regularly Wed. and Sat for the last eleven years we have been here. Now, Saturdays have been missed several weekends with pick-up on Monday and then Wed. They even skipped Saturday, July 2nd and picked it up on Monday, July 4th. I have called and they said they were unaware of the missed Saturdays????? I really don't want to complain too much as pick-up is free here in Portland. Just contributing my experience.
