“Maybe if I tip the regular garbagemen on my route, they will overlook transgressions. Instead of tagging the can as a violation, and leaving it on the curb, they might just tip it into the truck and cover the forbidden trash with other garbage”
Don’t know how it is in other places, but in NYC the trash collectors aren’t the ones who issue the fines. They have “officers” from the sanitation department who drive around and check.
