People, please. If you're going to use social media, please learn some basic etiquette. After the horrible car accident tonight, people were putting names and graphic details online within a matter of a couple of hours. Please keep in mind that family members haven't always been notified when you go putting information all over social media. In addition, people don't need those graphic details to be the first that they find out about the death of their loved ones. I would say to talk with your teenagers about this, but there were grown adults doing the same thing. My condolences to the families affected.
Responsible pet owners keep their pets out of their neighbor's yard. If you are not going to take care of them, don't get them. If I wanted poop in my yard, I'd get a dog or cat.
I think the new company that is going to get all the business of trash pickup has some good connections. Someone needs to look into this more for the public.
The Republicans need to understand that we will not forget that they preferred to allow taxes to be raised on everyone rather than just the rich. Tell me that the Republican Party does not stand for the elitists.
I wonder how many of the people who complain about the “War on Christmas” have already taken down their tree and decorations before the end of Christmas.
Our Congress, all the way up to the president, are a disgrace.
I have never been a flag waver. The flag is misused by politicians. However, I certainly root for our men and women in uniform, as well as our first responders and teachers.
Please tell me why Allgreen has still not refunded payments for trash services after they snatched up all their cans in Lowndes County on Nov 1 with no notice to their customers. I have been told numerous times that the checks are going out “tomorrow,” but I still haven't received them. Two months later, it's time to get someone else involved to get these people to do the right thing!
With the U.S. trillions in debt and paying billions in interest, why do we still send foreign aid to countries like Palestine, Iran and Syria? They can't hate us anymore than they already do and you can't buy true friends.
God bless Jack and Nellie Schelly for the work they do in rescuing little dogs. God will reward you in heaven.

I am a student at Valdosta State University, I pay thousands of dollars in tuition, but I am not allowed to use the Student Recreation Center because I am not taking summer classes. I was told that I have to pay $45 to use the Rec Center during the summer. As if I don't pay enough already... Utterly ridiculous.

Truly embarrassing that our community euthanizes 12 animals daily. Our citizenry hasn’t progressed to understand responsibility. The end result in these horrible economic times is the ongoing suffering of animals. Other locales nearby have solved this problem; mandatory spay/neuter and breeding licenses are needed to stop this scourge. Let’s get serious, please!

I think what the County Commissioners are doing to Deep South Sanitation is outrageous and I think the citizens of Lowndes County should remember this during the next election. They are giving away freedom of choice. This man had this trash collection before Advanced.

The City of Valdosta needs another cable company! Competition is a great thing.

Perhaps I'm in the minority, but I'm quite pleased with Advanced Disposal. I'm paying less than I paid for service with Veolia, the service is reliable and they offer a large recycling bin. I don't understand what's "socialist" about offering county residents affordable, reliable service.

Closing the trash drop off was a big mistake. I live in Stone Creek so now I can’t put anything beside the street, now I have to haul it to the landfill and pay by weight. I had to pay $15, then I have to pay the trash pick up monthly. Something is wrong in this picture. I have a lot of yard waste, so now I have to take it to the landfill every time I clean yards.

I live in Brooks County. A while back, a limb fell at the edge of my yard. I called the road department asking to remove it. I was told they could not help because it was on private property. Later driving down Johnson Short Road, I saw the road department removing limbs from a yard. I have found out the limbs were on private property.

Do people in Valdosta not understand that when you lag behind at a green light there are people behind you that will not make the green light due to your inconsideration?

Mosquitoes in the city are growing fast. But sanitation and cable bills in so-called "Metro Valdosta" are growing even faster!

We live in Stone Creek and couldn't be happier with Deep South Sanitation! They are the best. People don't realize that they come get your trash can and put it back on the side of the house! Keep fighting Deep South, and know you have our support!
