- 01
Ask in plain words
No department names needed. "My trash wasn't picked up" works fine.

Get a starting point
Which office handles it, general next steps, and where the official info lives.

Confirm at the source
Every guide links official pages with the date we last checked them.

What I won't pretend to do.
WHATUPDOE is an independent guide, not City Hall. Being clear about that is the whole point.
