We live in Belvedere and the trash pick up has been as late as 11:30 recently ---Also know that there are people who drive by on trash day and take things that they view as non-trash. When we first moved here we put out a grill on trash day that was in the backyard and rusted through and through. Before the trash collectors came, someone stopped and asked if they could take it---he said his "boss" told him if he saw things that might be "good" on trash day to stop and collect if o.k. with owners. He took the grill. We put out bathroom scales a few weeks ago with the trash and they were gone before the trash man came. I hate this happened---could have been a theft--could have been the trash men and could have been those "gleaners" that come through the neighborhoods. I hope she can recover her items--I can't imagine how she must feel --so violated --especially losing those items that cannot be replaced.
