Homeowner reports someone dumped his garbage all over someone else’s driveway blocks away

by | Oct 14, 2011

We got a note from a homeowner in Greenwood who reports that someone dumped the contents of his garbage and recycling bins all over someone else’s driveway – two blocks away – but left the cans at the original house. He reported it to Seattle Public Utilities, which picks up garbage and recycling, as well as the Seattle Police Department’s North Precinct.

My wife received a phone call from an angry woman, saying that our garbage and recycling was dumped all over her driveway. We put out our garbage and recycling on Tuesday night just like everyone else, so we aren’t sure how it got all over her driveway. We have reported the incident with seattle public utilities, and they mentioned they would send out an inspector. Wondering if this has happened to anyone else recently? This happened near 8500 block (of Phinney Avenue North).
To the woman: we are very sorry that you had to deal with this. Again, we have reported the incident with seattle public utilities. If there’s anything you need from us, you have our phone number.
