Now there really is a start-up for everything

I dare you, dare you, to tell me we’re not in a tech bubble.

There’s a new startup called TrashDay — and as far as I can tell, this is a real thing — in San Francisco that will take your trash cans out to the curb for you on trash day.

You fill out a form, tell them where your trash cans are … and I guess you never have to worry about it again.

Ten bucks a week, four to six cans. 

I’m kind of hoping it’s a joke, and I just missed it.

There’s a lot happening in the world.  Through it all, Marketplace is here for you. 

You rely on Marketplace to break down the world’s events and tell you how it affects you in a fact-based, approachable way. We rely on your financial support to keep making that possible. 

Your donation today powers the independent journalism that you rely on. For just $5/month, you can help sustain Marketplace so we can keep reporting on the things that matter to you.
