THESE are the type of people that should get the 30%+ tips .i see these guys down there in what used to be clean seattle streets . Glad they are trying to get it back that way 💪🏽 the Trike Team is much Needed
Many thanks to Jason Harrison and the rest of the Clean Team and the Down Ambassadors of the Downtown Association. This program needs to be replicated throughout the other trashed out areas of the city. This program should be expanded during the summer when youth workers could be employed to do some this work.
Gallons are used in the trash industry as a measurement of volume. For comparison your small garbage can is most likely a 32 gallon can, your large recycling container is probably a 90 gallon container. That being said a large route in the residential industry is about 1000 customers a day, so this is about the same amount of volume one recycling truck picks up in a day.
gallons is a Measure of Liquids, but I guess if they are using trash bags that measure capacity that is how they came up with 100, 000 gallons of trash picked up. because that just doesn't make any sense really. so they got 100,000 gallons worth of trash bagged filled.? i'm confused.
if those trash bags were filled with 8.34 pounds per gallon that would be 417 US tons of trash that is a lot of trash. I doubt that density was that high but still they likely picked up well over 100 tons of trash.@@NWforager
Gallons are a common way to measure liquids, but it is really just a measure of volume. And of course anything can be measured by volume, or weight, or mass, etc. Fun fact, some liquids are often measured by weight, like jet fuel.
@@HeywoodJablowme-ro5ut I have no idea what that means. Is that some blue-haired feminist comment or something? Or is it green? Can’t seem to keep the insults straight.
When you go Overseas like Swiss,Germany, France, Spain , Sweden, See with your eyes 👀 Are very Clean No Junk in Front House's ,Roads Very Clean and more We R A Society of Filthy...
How about instead of thanking them we pick up after ourselves so they dont have to like our parents did. And before anyone blames the homeless its not just the homeless it’s everyone.
Thank you to each one of the ambassadors.
Thank you to those who picked up the trash!

Thanks Jason! And thanks to everyone else doing their part to keep their neighborhoods clean, whether that's in Seattle or not.
i was on a trash crew in ocala florida , changed my life, and was a true blessing. It was called wear gloves
Thank you ❤
How do I become an ambassador? I'd do it too. This guy seems like a good co-worker to have. 😄
Same. I'd like to know how.
Gee wonder why they werent needed 10 years ago🤔
They have been picking trash for 20 years
Ever considered how fast our city has grown? This is normal metropolitan operations in a large city

Looks like homeless people are bad for the enviroment. Greta Thurnburg should get on board with putting all the addicts in jail 😂
Something tells me you’re the type to litter.

Yet you dont care that the cops let bad landlord investors get away with crimes against paying tenants, making them homeless in the first place?
For accuracy purposes; it might be better to use a metric for weight (pounds/kilos) instead of a volume of water (gallons).
Totally agree but it's probably easier to estimate based on gallons per garbage bag since I assume they don't weigh the garbage.

Let's see how long this lasts.
They have been doing it for 20 years
Gallons or pounds?
Stay tuned for Next month, 100,000 pounds of Hype dermk needles.

i would think that regular suburban streets like Magnolia or lake forest park would need these trikes too if what you say were true about blame
