People dumping in community?

This is an entire living room set.. just sitting in the grass next to the dumpster. Too much furniture to lift into dumpster.. And I heard a person just pulled up his truck, unloaded it, and drove off.. GRRRRR!

After reading the thread title, I thought you were talking about a bunch of hippies pooping in the woods together.

Try this:

I thought this was about low prices of imported goods, that are hurting local businesses.

OK, so I live in a small community that is under construction at the moment having trim work on all units repaired, yet some people feel it's their right to dump whatever they wish into the construction dumpsters. Today I saw furniture, a whole living room set, sitting next to the dumpster... this is not allowed by the association, but people do it anyway! It looks like a land fill out there!! Is there anything I can do to stop it legally??

It is against the law to dump your trash in a dumpster that does not belong to you. In Virginia this carries up to a $5000 fine and/or up to a 2 year jail sentence, I think. But, unless a cop rolls up on the person in the act, it's a hard one to enforce.

But on the bright side, at least they're not burning their old furniture in the front yard as is the practice in some areas of the country.

Good point. While it may be illegal to tape someone without their knowledge(See post above i.e. Trail Cameras) there is nothing that says you can't put a sign up that tells people they are being video taped and violaters will be fined. A giant sign with a camera and red letters will cut down on dumping 50% I bet.

I'd be pretty pissed if someone was constantly dumping in my community!

Anyone in need of a living room set? ... How the heck am I going to get rid of this stuff? I cannot tell you how much it fires me up to pull into my neighborhood and right smack in front of me is an old couch, chairs, cushions..etc.. sitting on the nice lawn right next to the community mailboxes… ugh!
