There are trash bins at our postal station and no signs restricting what can be put in them. I mean, if I have a dunkin cup in my golf cart I'm gonna put it in there.

I believe that post was debunked earlier. It is just one opinion.

Re: the dumpsters at rec centers and other areas in/around The Villages:
Those are paid for by whoever owns the property the dumpster sits on, they're not part of the amenities. You're not "allowed" to put your trash in them. However, the property managers/owners/neighbors aren't really going to care if you use them. "Accepting that you do this" is not "tacit permission." If you lift the lid to toss a trash bag in, and a rat comes out and bites you, you can't sue the property owner for having unsanitary conditions. That's because you didn't have the right to do that in the first place. You do it at your own risk, which is fine - I did the same thing once up north when our community dumpster was full and the Wawa down the street had room in theirs for a trash bag. As for the trash cans at the postal stations: they're INTENDED for people to toss whatever mail they don't want to take home with them. That might be plastic wrapping, it might be junk mail, it might be small boxes or bubble wrap, or envelopes, and so on. Maybe you brought your Wendy's soda cup with you while reading through your mail and now it's empty so you toss that in too. But it's not intended for you to clean out three months worth of crap in your car and stuff a garbage bag into the can, and it's not intended for you to put feces in it. You shouldn't NEED rules for this. It's called "being a civilized adult living in a first-world country, and having a mother who cared enough about her child's future to teach them manners." If you had a horrible mother, you could be forgiven. If not, then it's on you to behave like a civilized adult, whether the rules say you have to or not. |

Wow.... all I really wanted to know was if there was a "proper" place for me to drop a single bag of kitchen trash on my way out of town.

I think you got your answer.....ask a neighbor. There is no other ‘sanctioned’ way to dispose of it on TV property.

Correct. Getting rid of trash is not free.

As for what the INTENDED use of the postal station cans - there was a long thread on here a year or so ago about how they were NOT intended for junk mail.

Whatever their intention for the garbage cans, most people will not take junk mail with them. The alternative would be to leave them on the bench where the wind blows them around. Just because someone puts something into your letter box does not mean that you will do anything with it. Or even pick it up.

I save up the feces in my car for a few months and dump it in the postal station all the time. Not a problem.
Good grief this forum is full of wackos. How do do you get months of trash and feces out of a coffee cup? Really. The bins at the postal stations are for trash that you may have with you for any reason. A score card, junk mail, a coffee cup. And yes I put a small grocery store size bag in there if it’s not trash day when I travel. It’s all going to the same place and funded by the same people, us. |
