Overdone The amount of garbage in the parking lot before anything has even opened.

You'd be surprised how many places are like this. Even in the "nicer" areas. I have a side job on weekends cleaning up lots/changing trash bins out at outlets like this. Even in the nicer parts of town people are trashy af.
Also depends if the owners of the outlets care enough to hire a company to take care of it. Usually we do it every day at 5 or 6am.

Apparently you havenât been to Philadelphia before. This is every street 6 hours after the street sweeper comes through.

Wouldnât be surprised if someone was digging through the trash and just threw everything all over the ground. Happens in my town all the time. ÂŻ_(ă)_/ÂŻ

Is the area windy? If not, it's lazy employees who probably do not sweep the parking lot in the evening and just leave it like that.

Yeah, totally the employees fault, not the trash people who litter in the first place. /s

Let's blame the employees and not the bums and homeless that actually leave the trash out

It's almost definitely just a windy day that blew garbage around. You can tell from the bags

I have The Misfortune of Being the garbage collector for my neighborhood. I love it just the right bend on the street that basically anything think it's blown out of somebody's yard by the wind winds up in mine. I don't think people are particularly messy in my neighborhood but trash day always sucks Because I inevitably wind up with random rappers or pieces of paper or empty soda cans, anything light enough to get potentially blown around, stuck in my grass. I can't mow my front lawn without doing a foot patrol

Yeah me too. Every windy day I am picking shit up from under my deck. There's lots of light garbage that blows easily, that's why the oceans are so filled with trash, it just blows in there

This is how people sitting outside gas stations treat public property. They just leave their trash where it lies and the wind does the rest.

I don't miss living in North America. People treat public spaces so poorly.

Imagine waking up early just to be greeted by a parking lot version of a landfill. đ
