20 My recycling has been delayed (live in NJ), due to a 'national truck driver shortage'... Can anyone explain to me why we, all the sudden, have a national truck driver shortage? I've been looking all over and I fail to see how a shortage of 18 wheel drivers is going to delay Recycle pickup.

Yep. Likely a good chunk of the older population retired early due to the china virus and all of the general unrest that went on starting in 2019. Also the crippling side effects of paying people to stay home on unemployment didn't help.
