Whatever happened to the garbage fairy?

I live in a cul-de-sac filled with apartments. There's probably about forty one and two bedroom units altogether.

When the moon is at its ugliest phase, people overload our two dumpsters. One dumpster will be flowing out the top, with the lid crammed closed and peoples trash piled on *TOP OF IT* while the other will be half full.

People leave mattresses, tables, desks, next to the dumpsters and they sit there for a month or more before the property manager (a dear old woman thats very nice despite the fact that she's ok'd two crackhead neighbors for me in two years, who where not so promptly evicted) gets rid of them somehow.

Is there some sort of method short of CC cameras to deter this? Would a sign saying "PLEASE KEEP OUR GHETTO CLEAN" make matters worse, besides embarassing the property manager?

We have lots of military and generally transients in our 'hood, but this trash thing bewilders me, because the apartments are actually pretty nice, townhouse style, and most people drive clean new wheels.

Some guy who lives in another building has this crappy s-10 parked directly in front of my apartment, and it moves an average of once a month, the rest of the tine the front passenger tire is apparently flat. Neighbors in my building have apparently inherited forty some odd feet of garden hose that they leave in a pile between me (and another neighbor) and our mailbox, along with some extremely bald tires they are using to adorn their apartment.

I'm tempted to toss their tires, throw the hose somewhere far away or even toss it, and have beater joes rig towed away, THEN put up the sign. And getting my windsheild (which nobody sees anyway) fixed.

Am I being overly pissed over something (that happens over and over) thats relatively minor, or should I just burn everything down and collect on some insurance?

If it keeps happening over and over, you got a right to get pissed. Can you ask the dude to park his S-10 in front of his own place? Your neighbors to move the garden hose? Who the hell keeps bad tires? They should definitely be moved. Mosquito breeding pit right there. I'd say talk to the neighbors or have the landlady do it.

Are the tags current on the S-10?
If not call and report an abandoned vehicle and it will dis-appear quickly.
Video evidence will definately help your case but you will need to be able to positively identify the culprits in the video and be willing to stand up in court to defend it. Is it worth it to you?
Because these kind of people that do dump illegally will no doubt light your house on fire, beat your ass in the street, blow up your car or some silly thing like that to exact revenge on you for fucking with their right to destroy your neighborhood.

I would tell them to clean their shit up, no doubt man. If other people want to live like fuckin pigs, let em, but they shouldnt dirty up your space and make it look bad just because theyre disgusting people.
