One of the things the city of Oklahoma City does that is very smart, is "large trash day" and once every other month we can put out old fence panels, or BBQ grills dead appliances, old water heaters and other crap no one wants. Lots of people put out furniture and just everything like lawnmowers and anything useful the scrappers come through early and grab. That is great because the can fix up a lawnmower or grill, and sell them or take them to a metal scrap yard.
The good news is the city spends the money to do that, and it eliminates a lot of the a-holes of the world from just dumping the crap on the side of a road to be cleaned up by a property owner or the city. The city says that since starting the large trash pickup days the budget for cleaning up illegal dumps has been reduced enough to pretty much pay for the large trash days.
Our across the street neighbors had a large pile of crap they put out yesterday. It just got picked up.
