Stuff like this really shouldn't happen....

At least it's not like at Universal, where the trashcans are overflowing in the morning... meaning they were not changed overnight.

We saw this more and more. Only at MK though.
They really need to bump up their cleaning staff at that park.

Its really sad. Cleanliness was a staple of WDW in the past.

I agree. All of the other parks seemed much more on top of things. Could just be the massive crowds at MK. This was our 9th visit to the parks and this was the first time I'd seen something this bad. Full trash can is one thing, but trash all over the floor is another.

I don't have an opinion about the trash can in Buzz, could not care less. However, if Walt did indeed make that statement, and he might well have, it just shows how much different society is today then it was in the 50's. Today if people see trash on the ground, they just take it as an invitation to add theirs to it. This has become an awful country to live in due to social entitlement. I don't think we need any immigration laws, in a few more years, if not now, no one is going to want to come here anyway.
people have always been dirty.. its not my house, someone else will clean it. Hence Disneys original statement. OR....

Do you guys go to a different Universal then I go too? The one in Florida, just north of WDW? I have never seen anything like that ever!
I see it in the parking garage in the morning almost every time I go there.

I also see far more trash bins overlfowing at Universal that aren't in queues. At least at Disney the queue bins have somewhat of an excuse in that the queues are packed all day and those are hard to get to. But at Universal I see bins on the walkways overflowing.

Universal uses a small fraction of the number of custodial employees per park section compared to Disney so that's a possible reason why.

This entire thread demonstrates what is wrong with the internet and it has nothing to do with the trash can.

I guess you could say this thread really is all about :cool: taking out the trash..

An isolated trash can with overflowing trash does not represent the state of TWDC or WDW.

Maybe a trash can doesn’t. But my family has had annual passes for a month after not having them or going since 2011. We have been to a park 4 times.

Trip 1 to EPCOT- Spaceship Earth down half the day, Imagination goes down while we are on the ride and had to be escorted out.

Trip 2 to MK - Haunted Mansion stops working twice for 10 minutes at a time while on the ride

Trip 3 to MK - Monorail down all day, Railroad down for 2 hours, People mover down for 15 minutes and then another 5 minutes while I’m in the queue.

Maybe we are just snakebitten having passes this time around. But I can count on one hand the number of times rides were inoperable at all when we went to ride them when they weren’t scheduled for refurbishment in the entire two years I had annual passes before.

To me, the lack of quality is definitely noticeable now in rides going down, the trash can issue here, and the constant tarps up in Magic Kingdom while they repair or refurbish a building. The latter has been ongoing for years but I still can’t stand it. And as others have said, there’s no reason for it. Tickets cost over $100 for 1 day. Parking cost over $20. It isn’t like they are charging $40 for admission and $5 for parking and just barely hanging on.

OK, I suppose it could happen. I do know one of the reasons though. That last time I was in Universal I was looking at the park map trying to get my bearings and a custodial team member stopped and asked me if he could help me find something. I told him that I had just figured it out, but thanks for asking. He then asked me where I was from and commented on that and spoke with me for about 10 minutes concerning the park and the Harry Potter changes. He was friendly, engaging and willing to interact with guests. So, I probably am responsible for the all important trash can to not get serviced. My bad.

Just as a side note, I don't remember any CM, custodial or otherwise ever actively asking if they could help. That particular week, Uni won my admiration and Disney lost a lot, but, it didn't have anything to do with trash cans.

What about trip 4?
