From experience - the best way to totally avoid trash accumulation is to eliminate trash bins from mail stations. I have lived in many communities with mail stations. The ones with trash bins next to mail boxes ALWAYS get used as major trash dumps. The mail stations with NO trash bins provided have been TOTALLY void of any trash!! My recommendation - The Villages should NOT provide any trash bins at all at the mail stations - people will take their mail with them and depose at home or elsewhere!!! And money will be saved - no need to have resources come empty all the bins. If provided - people will abuse. At first I didn’t like the mail stations with no trash bins - but - it forced me to take my trash home and dispose of there! :-)
