Round here, folks contract privately for weekly residential trash
removal. The company provides one of those 95 gallon wheeled bins with
their name on it which you roll out to the curb on pickup day.

I've been unhappy with my current hauler for a while now so didn't renew
service for the coming quarter but hired another company.

I called the old company today to let them know I was done with them as
of today which was my last pickup day of the quarter-- and asksed them
to come get their wheelie cart.

They said dit would be about 10 days until they could come get it and
told me to just leave it out by the curb. I told them a few days storage
was fine but a week and a half was not (ugly, smells bad, in the way,
neighbors unhappy, etc.) but they said 10 days was how long it's going
to take.

I guess at this point, I have several options (charging them $10 a day
rent to store their property on mine, escalating it to a supervisor,
calling the county zoning enforcement division and complaining of their
"litter" in my yard, etc.

I guess what I'm looking for here is the easiest way-- really don't want
to get into a ****ing contest over a stinkin' garbage can ...

Any suggestions?

Hose it out and forget about 10 days. The trash company provided the can,
but you provided the stink. If you had bagged all of the trash or washed
out the can it would not stink.

I'd put a free sign on it, Scotch Taped on there, and yes, leave it on the
curb. They will either come get it, or it will disappear on its own. Once
you have notified them, it's not your responsibility. You did what was
right by notifying them. Now, if you want to be a Ned Flanders about it
(Homer Simpson's wimpy neighbor), yes, take it on to your property and hold
the stinky mess until they decide to come get it. Or just let it sit out
there and be an eyesore. Read your contract carefully to make sure they
can't yank your chain if it goes missing, which might be what they want.

The trash hauler probably has a scheduled route for picking up their
containers. I see no reason to be ****y about waiting 10 days for the
pickup. I'd probably clean it, too...that isn't rocket science and the
user is the one who created the "stink".

Yes, it sill is for some period of time under the "due diligence" aspects of
the law. He should have notified them before the last day and started that

Well Red might be just being grumpy but in some areas if you leave your
trash can out more than a day beyond collection day they will fine you.

They did that in one area here because a bunch of lazy ass low lifes would
leave the can at the curb and pile trash in it and over the top. That way
they didn't have to haul the can out.

If I were you, I'd read the contract. If the contract requires you to wait a
period of time, you're stuck. You cannot unilaterally charge them a storage fee.
Doing so requires mutual assent, or a "meeting of the minds."

There could be some other terms and conditions in the contract that are not
favorable to the position you are threatening to take. Tread carefully.

Yer right, Ed. Bad suggestion. Strike that. I'd man up, wash it out, put
it next to my garage, let it sit for the time they said, and if two weeks
pass, I'd give them one more phone call and tell them that I was putting it
to the curb.

Reply: good advice. If the OP has to wait two weeks, I'd shoot off a
registered letter NOW and tell them that according to their contract, they
have xx days to pick it up, and after that it is no longer his
responsibility. I somehow think, though, that they will be there sooner
than ten days. But maybe with the holidays, who knows.

Trash pickup is strange. Some friends we have in California have to buy
stickers at $2 each, and put them on trash bags no larger than a certain
size. They then have to take those sacks to the street - they live in the
hills and are away from the paved street. And if an animal has strewn the
trash, the guy will only take the time to grab the sack or what remains of
it. Sacks must be sealed around the top, and there are definitions of
"sealed". I have to take mine nearly 1/4 mile to the pickup point. Had to
plead big time to get a second one, as they only pick up once a week.

Very likely, once it is at the curb, it is no longer on your property.

Don't start with the new company until after the 10 days. Put it out
at the curb and put your trash in it. When they pick it up, they can
take the trash with it. If they dump the trash and don't take can, it
is their mistake not yours.

Doing it this way, you save money and all is good.

I've found that it's never a good idea to "burn bridges" and
really irritate folks. Never know, the new company might be
worse. I've had that situation with cell phones. I swore I'd

complete signal coverage. Sigh.

Hose it out and forget about 10 days. The trash company provided the can,
but you provided the stink. If you had bagged all of the trash or washed
out the can it would not stink.



That's not quite accurate Roger.

The "stink" you refer to is coming from a bunch of wadded-up, fetid and
fermented paper towels. Seems my landscape crew discarded them in the
trash after drying their private parts following a stimulating hour long
session behind the garage with your wife.

They said she lured them back there with a crude promise of "caliente"
sex. And just so you know-- I'm a straight-up and OK guy. She offered me
a roll in the hay too-- but I flat turned her down.

As to the rest of y'all, thank you so much for the many helpful
suggestions....

calling the county zoning enforcement division and complaining of their
"litter" in my yard, etc.

I guess what I'm looking for here is the easiest way-- really don't want
to get into a ****ing contest over a stinkin' garbage can ...

Any suggestions?

Upgrade your service from curbside pickup to the level where they come
to the house to get the can instead.

It's only one week, so it won't cost but pennies and you can leave the
can by the house.

BTW...If the odor is on your list of why you don't want to leave it by
the curb for 10 days, where do you normally keep it such that the
stench doesn't bother you?

I guess at this point, I have several options (charging them $10 a day
rent to store their property on mine, escalating it to a supervisor,
calling the county zoning enforcement division and complaining of their
"litter" in my yard, etc.


I canceled my cable TV service. Then after two months they had not yet
refunded the money they owed me. (This did show on the closing statement
they sent me.)

So I marched into their office and there were about 10 people behind me by
the time I got to the head of the line... I then loudly informed them they
were late with my refund and I was charging them a late fee!

I said THEY charged me a late fee when I was late paying! So they should pay
me a late fee as well! (Everybody including those working there thought this
was great!)

I got my refund right then and there, but they of course said they couldn't
pay me a late fee. It was fun asking though and provided a bit of
entertainment for everyone...

Then don't. Put it out by the curb and be done with it.

Any suggestions?

What has our society become? Neighbors who think an empty, closed
trash can set at the curb for a legitimate reason is an "eyesore" so
offensive that it requires calling in local law enforcement? A man so
vindictive that he is scrounging for ways to "get back" at the garbage
man for some perceived injustice?

If we all followed two simple rules, things would be a lot better for
everyone:

1. Let your wallet do the talking.
2. Mind your own business.

That's not quite accurate Roger.

The "stink" you refer to is coming from a bunch of wadded-up, fetid and
fermented paper towels. Seems my landscape crew discarded them in the
trash after drying their private parts following a stimulating hour long
session behind the garage with your wife.

They said she lured them back there with a crude promise of "caliente"
sex. And just so you know-- I'm a straight-up and OK guy. She offered me
a roll in the hay too-- but I flat turned her down.


She is already my ex-wife so she can roll in the hay with anyone she wants,
so if she offers again go for it.

But since it was your landscaping crew, it is still your stink.

Well, I was one of the first to respond to the OP and apparently the only
one he chose to attack for a serious reply to what appeared to be a real
question. His reply to me however shed light on his true nature.

I must admit to getting a little ****y myself here at times. Sometimes it's
mood, sometimes it's medical.

But this IS a group to answer questions, and then it degenerates from there.

As in, "What's the best way to take out a Phillips screw?"

One or two answers and it's a done deal, yet it can go on for weeks.
