Has your trash can ever been stolen?

That's sad. We usually chain our trash can so it does not get stolen.

That's awful! Did you have your house number tagged on it? I have not had this problem here. But one would think because they could tell it was new someone took off with it. Crazy how things happen like this during the day hours so it gets one extra curious who the culprit is? Could it be a neighbor? or a passerby?

Hi. lowelllhenderson65. No. Not that I know of. People can be such terrible thieves! Why can't someone just go out and buy their own trash can. I would not want to use anyone else trash can. I prefer my own brand new trash can. That is so sad that someone is so stingy to buy their own trash can!

Yeah some people steal trash to look for your personal papers like your bank statements or credit card statements. I would be careful to only throw out stuff that does not have any of your info on it.Recently from where I am from there was a wave of identify theft and a lot of people have had their identy stolen and their credit cards and bank accounts used by thiefs.Today during this rough economy people are doing almost anything to get by , even if it means resorting to theft.
