The disposal company likely took it as trash...

I live at 509 Del Mar, so whoever took my black wheel barrel, please return it!! It was obvious it was not garbage because it was full of the debris waiting for the garbage men to empty it on GARBAGE DAY!!! If it was free, I would have put it out on any day besides garbage day! You know who you are so please return it and clear your conscience, thank you!

I always thought that item is called a wheelbarrow.

Funny.. I had all my beach stuff in a pile.. umbrella,chairs,wagon.. bags, blankets ..on the other side of my driveway waiting to get picked up on a girls beach day
on garbage pick up day..and someone stopped to ask if the chairs were still good..
honesty if they thought my stuff was garbage.. they may have thought yours was.
Just saying..

The lesson to be learned here is, do not put anything of value in front of your home on garbage day.

or sadly you made a poir decision based on your communities actions. Did they leave out expensive equipment to accomodate their trash.
Next week im sending my mother in law, wheres poppa, out to test the garbage pickup theory

The garbage guys probably threw it in the truck with the rest of the garbage. That's the standard rule here in TV. If it's at curbside on garbage day it's up for grabs...if nobody takes it before the garbage truck comes around, they put everything in the truck...no matter if it "looks good" or "doesn't look like garbage." They pitch it in the truck with the rest of the trash.

dave....I was told when I moved here, if you use a garbage can for your trash, the garbage man will take the whole thing. This is not like " up north". some things are different here. Glorinh.... I am surprised that you thought it was ok that your trash in a wheelbarrow was ok to put out on trash day. The garbage men will take the whole thing, just like the garbage cans, and will not turn it over and empty it into the truck. Use your heads people!

Not a smart move , it’s gone forever. Lesson learned lol

They throw it in the dump! No one stole it to do a job because that requires Working!!

Villages Kahuna 06-14-2022 06:30 AM

You have no chance. One of many people who circulate the streets earlier than the garbage trucks take items that they think are usable that appear to be put out as garbage. That’s what your wheel barrow filled with trash looked like. So it’s gone.

Or as noted above the garbage men themselves threw the wheel barrow filled with trash into the garbage truck. That’s what they do. Either way, time for a new one.

So you are just supposed to put your trash out in garbage bags? Doesn't that entice the wild life to tear them open? I

It's called a wheel barrow, not a wheel barrel. 🙂

Yes and old newspapers in a cardboard box. Life in the bubble and we have never had a problem with wildlife tearing bags apart
