This is getting ridiculous.

Someone stole our recycling bin.

Again.

My roommate brought the trash cans in after the garbage pickup, so I didn't realize it until I went to put something in the bin today. This makes the third time that our recycling bin has been stolen. Our trash can has also been stolen at least three times, though this latest one hasn't been taken yet. Everything's been clearly labeled with our address. I've even gone out on the night before trash day to see if I can find someone who's put our bin or can out with their stuff in it, but to no avail.

Has anyone else in the Highland Road/Morrison area had issues with this? Or is there just someone out there who's trying to mess with me specifically? It never seems like any other cans or bins from our building go missing. I've already spent about $45 or so on trash cans, which is just ridiculous when we've never actually HAD more than one at a time, and I've had to send my boyfriend out to get me a new recycling bin on his day off because they're never open at times when I'm not at work. I won't have time to get a new one now until after Christmas when I'm on vacation.

Gah. I'm bloody fed up with this crap.

That's what I'm afraid of. I am going to have to start being extra-vigilant and grabbing them in the morning right after trash pickup.

I'm the roommate in question, and I have to wonder if the trash collectors/recyling pickup people aren't just grabbing stuff, bin & all, and chucking it in the back of their vehicle. I strongly suspect the trash collectors in re: the AWOL trash cans, and I wouldn't be surprised if they or the other above-mentioned suspects were responsible for the recycling bins as well.

Then again, it could just be random assholes...*sigh*
