I mean if I left it clean and nice, and your trash can was only 1/2 or less full? No. I wouldn't overfill it, though.
One time a lady got soooo mad, and I threw a take out meal in her trash, and she yelled at me, and then I asked her would you like for me to throw it out on the street, or on your yard. So people, really, If you throw trash on street or property you will get a $500 fine, and if you throw it in another's can they get pissed what is one to do.
I don't mean to be mean, but at the same time if I don't throw the trash out it could be unhygenic if I store it in my yard, hence rats or opposums, causing the whole neighborhood in turmoil.

Have a big family, and if I want to throw trash out only have 1 can,. You have to pay $80 more for another one which is out of my budget.

It sounds to me like you are being a cheap *** and not wanting to buy adequate trash cans for your family so you are mooching the neighbors cans.
You could have bought another trash can with the money you spent on a few take out meals !!!!
Yep, that would piss me off. You are the kinda guy that justifies borrowing stuff from friends and neighbors cause you don't want to buy it yourself. Am I right?

I don't know what you're talking about. A trash can costs like 15 dollars at the local Home Depot.
Unless it's costing 80 dollars to have your trash collected - and if I was your neighbor, I'd be mad as all heck at you for making me pay to haul away your garbage.
If you can't afford to take care of your big family, why the heck should I be forced to do it, just because I have the bad luck to live next door to you?
How about I let my dog use your yard as his toilet and we call it even?
If, in fact, you are talking about a one-time occurrance, where you're walking down the street and eating a take away meal, and there are no municipal trash cans around, nor are there any dumpsters near a grocery store, business or restaurant, I suppose the next best thing would be to trespass on someone's property to dispose of your garbage in their containers. But if it were me, I'd either throw it away in the restaurant's garbage, or take it home and use my own garbage containers.

If it was one time, I'd be glad you had the good sense to find a trashcan for whatever reason. But I'd be ticked off too if it became a regular occurance and it seems like that is the case.
It is UNBELIEVABLE rude to use someone elses can as if it was your own.
She shouldn't have to pay for your trash?! Maybe she needs the space herself, but regardless it's just plain rude.
You can't afford another can? Well drag the trash with you and throw it in cans that you find outside gas stations, stores or whatever ... just leave your neighbors cans alone.

The lady was being impolite and sure enough mean. Now if you have a trash can why put it in hers? So therefore I take for granted that you were walking or riding and decided to empty it on her property to avoid littering. To me that is okay. Well overlook her and find another trash can the next time, hoping it be somone that will not mind.

I wouldn't be upset if it was a onetime thing but if you were constantly throwing your trash in there I might get a little ticked off. But basically I,de be glad you aren't throwing it on the street.

This lady was very irrational. I would prefer that people throw it in the trash. Instead of leaving it for me to do. Maybe she was PMS'ing or going through menopause! Who knows.

If your tash can was full already, then I wouldn't be upset if you asked to put trash in mine, You should have asked the lady before you put the trash in her trashcan.

be careful. regardless of in case you shred your information, there are idiots who placed that stuff jointly. try putting your shredded papers in warm sauce, leftover condiments, and bleach. that should deter every person from getting your information. As for the BUM, somebody else's trash, is somebody else's treasures.

That lady is paying the city for someone to come and collect her garbage. Not your garbage, hers. If you don't have permission to use her can than don't. It's common courtesy. The lady wasn't being shown any. That's why she was mad.
