Definitely on the garbage guys' side here. Since your neighbor was packing up an RV, an extended trip was obviously in the works. Seems perfectly reasonable that they would think the soda and beer was for them as an early holiday gift. I sincerely hope Community Watch was able to resolve things so that your neighbor (and you) now knows to not put things by the curb if they don't want it picked up in error.

It's really a shame when the first thought is to think badly of another when a kinder, more logical explanation is available.
