It's full, wrapped in plastic: A Big Belly on B needs emptied out

An EVG reader shares these Big Belly photos from outside Sheen Brothers on Avenue B at 10th Street... the solar-powered trash can is full... and to prevent people from continuing using this for trash, or even stacking stuff on top, someone basically wrapped it with plastic and posted multiple notes ...


The Big Belly trash cans arrived here in July 2017 as part of the city's $32-million plan to combat vermin in rat-popular neighborhoods, like this one.

H/T Pete Martell!

  2. These things suck but they're not as bad as the horrendously designed ones all over, where the doors are always open with the inner trash bucket halfway out so half the trash doesn't go in the bin. Horrendous design!

  3. I thought we gave up on these as they were overpriced, broken, and always full
