Description
A mattress and split box spring have been left outside 1622 Bainbridge street for the last 2 days. It was likely left out for trash pickup, but not picked up. There is frequently trash left out front of these three buildings on non trash days and my guess is they will attempt to leave it again until next trash day. Please have this picked up or fine if necessary. The amount of trash that's left out on non trash days or left out in open bags spilling out is unacceptable and this is just the current example. I don't know who to ask to remote the trash, no one was answered at the apartment residences.

File a complaint with the SWEEPS department using the following link:
http://potholes.phila.gov/tap.nsf/31d28eaa812dcb0f8525750400650256?OpenForm
SWEEPS will send out a representative to look at the situation and will issue a citation/warning. If the mess is not cleared, SWEEPS will then issue a fine.

according to "who's watching" on this site (to the right), Philadelphia311 and the Streets Department should receive the information, among others. But, as you can see, many complaints posted here remain open and unresolved.
By contacting the appropriate department directly, I think you'll see some results. Also, after filing a complaint using the link, you'll receive a confirmation # which is useful in following up should SWEEPS not respond in a timely manner.
