Frustrated over an unpaid debt and faced with a $1,000 bill to discard a giant pile of junk at the dump, an East Bay dumpster company instead unloaded it back into the nonpaying customer's yard, but the problem is they moved out when they rented the dumpster.

    Seems like the dumpster company would have some kind of insurance for this kind of situation. Its the cost of doing business if they didn’t get enough information to track the guy down. And they should learn a lesson, next time get a deposit or credit card for whatever the max cost could be. You don’t go litter because he didn’t pay, you pay for it then sue. How do they not have reserve cash to solve this then try to sue after?

      Insurance for work done? What the fuck kind of industry do you work in? Who even insures things like this?

      They just gotta go clean it up, end of story. It’s going to be more expensive than if they had just eaten the cost and dumped it in the first place.

    Earlier this month, a neighbor’s security camera filmed a truck from Express Rental Dumpster in the East Bay dumping loads of junk and household items into the San Pablo yard of a former tenant who skipped out on a $700 debt, as KGO reports.

    Weird. Every time I rent a dumpster, I pay up front. I only owe more if the weight goes above a certain threshold, which it never has.
