Garbage around dumpster

Brian Morris
  • Huntsville, AL
Posted

On a 12 unit complex, we have a once-a-week, 8 yard dumpster track pickup.  I've noticed it's almost always full when I visit the property, and bags are left lying outside of the dumpster.  I spoke with the pickup company, and the drivers are instructed not to leave the truck.  

We've almost receive photo evidence of a rogue dumper from nearby community.  So there may be an additional strain on the capacity.

Any suggestions?  It's frustrating because I'm not 100% what the source of the problem is.

Just spit balling ideas.... 

  1. signs
  2. community newsletter explaining problem and asking feedback
  3. increase size of the dumpster
  4. install cameras and actual monitor the dumpster
  5. install fake cameras to discourage rogue dumping.
