Letter: Not every house needs weekly trash bin pickup

A fee of $60 per annum is too high for trash pickup (“$2.8B Honolulu budget proposes trash-pickup fee and higher taxes for hotels, investment properties,” Star-Advertiser, March 2).

I live in a cul-de-sac with all retirees living on fixed incomes. Our trash receptacles are never overfilled. We want to consolidate our trash containers and decrease the amount of trash containers for our cul-de-sac. We have seven homes and I believe all we need is four containers instead of seven.
