Default Trash Mystery

Last night we put out 5 black trash bags that contained things removed from my MIL's house. Hopefully, there was nothing of value since we went through things carefully. They contained things like a huge amount of used underwear and expired food. Who has a dresser drawer full of silica gel packets? This morning, we found three bags were gone but in their place, someone gifted us 4 gray velour sofa cushions and a backpack. What gives?

You are not allowed to bring garbage here from elsewhere.

Underwear Gnomes. Not a very big issue at TV, yet.
I went to this little town in Colorado to see some friends of mine. Nice place, friendly faces everywhere. Underwear Gnomes (I call them what they are, thieves) are a major issue there.

Maybe it's just me and my vocation, but multiple black plastic bags makes me think, "body parts."
