I remember the time my roommates and I used to haul our trash to this neighbor's house who had a small pile of junk on their curb. Eventually that pile became huge because anytime we needed to throw anything out, big or small, we'd just walk over to the house at night and throw it on the pile.

Eventually we found out mice had been coming in through our dryer exhaust hole and our laundry room had tons of them running around in there. They were nesting in a cushion from a papasan chair we had stored in there. So we dragged the papasan outside and filled it full of holes with our pellet guns, shooting anything that moves because this is Texas. So many dead mice. We tossed that cushion onto the pile and the next day we saw like 20 cats all over the trash pile. It was the biggest swarm of cats I've ever seen. The day after that, the neighbors got rid of the whole pile.

I do go to neighborhoods having the trash pickup (they have websites that list what areas are being picked up). But it has to be richer neighborhoods. I ain't gonna pick up trash from another poor person. What's the point?
