But total cereal, if the custodian of the can that's half full gets pissed, they could benefit from some "perspective education". Cuz they don't own it. They use it.

I am. I’m the scofflaw who put the recycling in my neighbor’s bin.
I was very surprised by her reaction. We’d been very neighborly for years, always saying hello, picking up each others mail, etc. No problems whatsoever.
She made the effort to come over to my house hours later, knock on my door, and complain about it. It was weird, she was so indignant, it was Ike I’d keyed her car. I didn’t know what to say, after looking around for the hidden camera I just apologized and left it at that.
Afterwards I figured she was having a bad day, and just let it go. It didn’t change our relationship at all, we were still just as friendly after that (they subsequently moved).
It wouldn’t bother me at all if my neighbor did that with my bin. As far as asking in advance, I guess that’s possible, but I’d rather they just do it without bothering me, also I’d like to think given our relationships they would assume it’s ok, and it’s unrealistic to ask in advance when the truck is 3 houses away.
