Speaking of Dumping...
Tired of your old mattress? Just haul it outside of your community gate and let your neighbors deal with it.

They're not dumping, they're setting up shop on the street.

When I lived in El Paso, TX (late 90s), you could put anything out on the curb and it would be GONE by morning.
If you advertised for a yard sale for Saturday, the hoards would decend on Friday. It was crazy! |

We mow pipeline right of ways all over, and you would not believe some of the shit we find dumped. Some of it is so bad we have to use the front loader to push it off so we can mow through. And the worst part? In the city of Houston, and most other cities, they pick up heavy trash once a month. My city picks up heavy trash once a week. So what's fascinating to me is, you see stuff dumped out in the middle of nowhere, in the city limits of Houston, knowing that they could have simply drug it to the curb and let the city pick it up, legally. They had to work harder to break the law than they would have to get rid of it legally. I just don't get it.

I was actually working at a gas regulator station and a guy pulls up in a truck and starts dumping shit right in front of me. I went over and asked him WTF he was doing? He got offended that I swore at him. Like, this adult man really had no idea that dumping a pickup truck full of shit IN BROAD DAYLIGHT, while I'm 50' away was wrong. He truly seemed dumbfounded and hurt that I cursed at him.
I told him to pick up his shit or I'd call the cops, so he did, but I suspect he just dumped it somewhere else. This was in the Sunnyside area of Houston. Anyone from H-Town can take a pretty good guess as to what kind of person it was. |

This thread is disturbing. On a number of levels. That is all.

It may just be one of those nights.
Is is worth staying up to see what happens? Or go to bed early on a Friday night and miss the fun? Could go either way. |

Any place I have lived they do not pick up heavy trash. Its on you! My BIL lives in a small rural community. It is not too far away from the big municipal dump. That dump is very picky on what they will accept. So what happens when something is refused is the person drives around a little finds a secluded spot on the road and dumps it there. Now for the funny part after a month or two they send out equipment to pick up the stuff and take it back to the landfill that rejected it. So instead of taking it easypeasy at the dump they send out a front end loader, large dump truck, sometimes a lowboy and 3-4 people. Must make sense to someone! |
