In order to maintain cleaner streets and reduce the rodent population on Beacon Hill, we the undersigned residents of Beacon Hill request that the Boston Public Works Department and Inspectional Services Department enforce the State Sanitary Code governing trash collection in our neighborhood. The Code (105 CMR 410) mandates that trash be left out on the same day as pick-up and therefore is allowable only after 12:01 a.m. the day of collection.

Updates

The momentum behind this push proves we are done living with filth and rats roaming our streets. Boston Public Works needs to quit ignoring their own regulations because this neighborhood is finished waiting for them to do their jobs.

Finally! The rats around here are getting huge. It is disgusting walking the dog at night.

SO TIRED of bags being ripped open by mice and seagulls before the trucks even show up. Fix this mess.

The trash bags on the sidewalk all night are a major eyesore. Clean up the streets already.

Walking to work through piles of garbage is the worst part of living in Boston. Please do something.

It is not that hard to follow the rules. Bring your trash out in the morning like everyone else.
