TIP to scrappers- DO NOT rip into peoples garbage bags!

I have been a recycler for 26 years!



Today was my trash day. I set out all of my normal weekly household trash.

I awoke this morning to my lids on my cans tossed on the ground and all of my cans had been rifled through. Not only that- they RIPPED OPEN every single bag that I had either on the curb or in the cans- hunting for "whatever"

My lawn clipping bag was ripped open, my household trash bags were ripped into and they put items from one can into another while they buried their heads to the bottom of my cans looking for a score!

Being a recycler for as long as I have this made me FURIOUS! People need to have some respect! I mean come on- hunt the stuff sitting on the ground, see a piece of metal sitting on top of the cans- but really- digging into every can and ripping open bags hoping I was dumb enough to throw out my stash of gold bullion? Give me a break!

Next week I'll be putting every nugget of my St. Bernards "deposits" into each and every bag hoping they come back!
