    How do we get people to stop doing this?


    I can see the lifeline bins from my house. People leave shit out on the pavement all the time but this is the worst in a while.
    Some lady even put the bags of clothes out while it was raining!
    Do they think by doing this they are doing a good thing?
    If you do this, please take it to a shop or ring them for a pick up! Numbers on the bin.

      I live near a second hand store and people leave bags of stuff on the footpath in front of it after hours almost every day, despite the big sign in the store window telling them not to. People must see it as a way to dump their unwanted stuff while feeling good about it, thinking they’re making a donation even though it probably has to go to waste. It’s disappointing but I don’t see it changing, some people are just pieces of shit.

      There’s a local meth-head who climbs into the charity bins to find stuff to hock.

      She throws the surplus on the ground.

      I won’t be surprised when the last couple of bins disappear. They’re an expensive way to make small change.

      It’s that time of year where people do spring cleaning and get rid of shit to make room for shit they’ll get for Christmas.

      I know exactly where this is (near the scout hall) and there are some really shitty people nearby who see all the stuff outside the bins but just contribute to it anyways.

      I live nearby and when I have to get rid of stuff I just go to one of the stores instead because those bins are always full this time of year.

      By removing the bins entirely. People don’t care. They can’t even take trolleys to the trolley bays 10m from there car. This ain’t stopping.

      Fix the housing crisis.

      The number of working class family’s from my townhouse bodycorp who have been priced out of their long term rentals and are downsizing to units with their kids is crazy.

      Lots of the ones who have been there long term have collected a lot of junk.

      Don’t consume and collect the way boomers did. Reduce, Reuse, Repurpose, Revamp, Rehome or Recycle.

      More landlords need to pass on the tip vouchers they receive for investment properties to their tenants.
