i cannot possibly express how much of a gigantic pain in the ass this is; it’s making more more slovenly than i want to be because it’s such an inconvenience to throw stuff away.
like should i buy a hand truck? that wouldn’t help for garbage bags
What does “the dumpster is a car’s drive away” mean?
The dumpster is so far away that they recommend driving a car instead of walking.
That’s the obvious interpretation.
If it is the correct interpretation, in what country is this legal? I’d be getting the tenants together to take the landlord(s) to court, if that is the correct interpretation and it is a country with laws about this sort of thing. But I don’t know if it is the correct interpretation or what country we’re talking about.
The US has very anti-tenant leanings in the judiciary, and bureaucracy overall.
So does every capitalist country. It’s very hard to imagine it being legal to rent an apartment without providing trash disposal.
Are we talking an actual car’s drive, or a USians idea of a distance that cannot be walked?
Yes. Europeans will walk 3 miles for a coffee, but consider 3 hours a long drive. Americans will drive 100 ft to take out trash, but will drive for 12 hours straight to leave their state.
Likely the latter.
Is the dumpster within line of sight? If so, zip line.
Or zip line to your trunk and then drive it to the dumpster. Afraid to say I have in fact done this… Long rope one end tied to balcony support and the other on the support arm for the trunk then tied bags together in pairs and sent them down riding a wash cloth (i was worried friction would tear through the bags…). Then walk down and load it in the trunk, untie the car and drove it to the dumpsters like 1/4 mile away.
I did it in the middle of the night, less witnesses.
If not? Trebuchet.
Trebuchet! Trebuchet! Trebuchet!
