On Sunday, the Department of Sanitation offered some timely guidance on what to do with couches on social media, noting that they can be placed outside the night BEFORE your TRASH-ONLY collection day.
Some feel like this was also a timely subtweet about a certain VP candidate.
When pressed for details about other large items, like toilets, the Department said those can also go out on your trash-only collection day.Have a couch you just...don't love anymore? Set it out the night before your TRASH ONLY (not recycling) collection day. pic.twitter.com/DUhX4uDVtk

Just make sure you get your couches picked up before JD Vance comes to town!
I'm always amazed at the crap people have in their apartment.
this is a seasonal phenomenon noticed for ~the last five years in the EV- students (?) buy disposable furniture for their disposal lives - I have been calling these apartment furniture dumps "life garbage", Locusts swarm in and move on once they have laid the land barren and leave behind their detritus: excrement and husks. we need more 'neighbors' and less journeymen with disposable income.
LOL. Agreed.
don’t worry about that. JD Vance doesn’t sleep on couches. he sleeps hanging upside down like a vampire bat
And if there is a sidewalk shed in front of the original building, they put it in front of the neighboring building, and they get the summons
I've lived here long enough to remember the times when "trash day" in certain hoods (Soho, UES...neighborhoods with cash) meant finding the occasional end table, lamp, maybe a decent coffee table or other useful items. Sanitation workers would sometimes scarf up the really good pieces for themselves or friends.
When Covid hit, there was so much almost new "stuff" abandoned on the curb, one could have opened several used furniture places.
As someone mentioned, now it's disposable "life garbage". It's rather representative of everything these days. Kind of sad, really.
