The young people that hang out there are rude and they leave a mess. What's the deal with no trash cans outside to put the rubbish in?

Makes Jackson Street look like a poop hole

It trashes St Pats too

The store is convenient but I am not sure that it worth all the trouble they bring to the community

I saw one of the ladies across the street from the store cleaning and picking up trash that settled in her yard. I must say I saw more than I bargained for when she bent over...yack! Lets find a solution to this trash problem quickly. Because I never ever want to see that side of that lady again....

I especially like it when their customers park in my spot in front of my house and they empty their ash tray on the sidewalk....IDIOTS

The Family Dollar has been trying to get this under control...

Not Fixed. Take a look at it today.

i would have to agree i also live on jackson and there is garbage every where thats because have no respect at all around here we need to get this fix

The cost for Family Dollar to put out an outdoor heavy duty weighted trash can and a cigarette butt reciprocal is under $100.00. I think our community's residences have given them enough profits to handle the expense.

the family dollar and ST Pats all help to trash the neighborhood.Family Dollar allows anyone to use their lot weather they are shopping or not so it is a good spot to park and walk down the ally to pick up your drugs and or whore.St Pats dose nothing when dealers use their parking lot either it makes for a great place to deal you can deal inbetween the buildings and if cops are called you can easily get away because they have to go all the way around the building to get you and by then you are gone.The church also has no respect for its neighbors.Bells at 7 am koc meets every morning at 7 and they all have to honk their horn when they lock their car.then there is church cant park at my house but when there is church i can usually find a spot at the church parking lot.The church and Family Dollar both need to do more to help clean up the community .also church people like cleaning their ashtrays on road too.

As of TODAY, the trash is still tremendous and piling up all around the building despite the fact the regional and district managers were due to visit there store last week. In fact an employee's car is parked over a huge pile of it. YIKES

News Paper got their attention. A bucket for cigarette butts is now by the door. However no outside trash can...they don't want to have household trash put in it.
