Description

Two workers have been clearing out this house and just piling things on the sidewalk and street. Some nice furniture and antiques too, by the way.
I asked the workers why they are not getting a dumpster, and they said the city will take care of it. I told them, no the city has very specific standards for bulky waist pick up and this was not meeting the standard by a long shot. They waved me off dismissively. I have a feeling this is a house bought by those WE BUY UGLY HOUSES people, and this is the sort of predetory flippers we are getting around here preventing normal home buyers a chance. And this is probably how they save money, is have Oakland pick up the dumping. THEY NEED TO BE FINED!!!!! I would be if I did this, unless of course the city has a deal with these flippers. No photo but very huge! I was afraid to take photos as the one "worker" was a bit hostile. Could it be he knew I was right.....
