People in this area have to hire private trash pickup.  No city or 
county trash pickup.  The major outfits (Republic Waste, Waste 
Management, Sunshine, etc.) do *not* pick up on holidays.  A local 
outfit does pick up on holidays and charges a hell of a lot less for the 
service.  Guess which one I use? ;)
