Where can you throw your trash?

So I am sure that everyone knows about my progress on getting rid of trash at the house that we are renting. I know that you have seen the pictures of the garage (from the post "Before and After - Cleaning). I encourage you to look at those pictures again and pay attention to the material (trash).

This weekend I started working on the other side of the garage. The reason that I waited so long was because I was told in January that I was only allowed to make 4 loads at the landfill (free of charge). So I waited till the beginning of the month. I went over there with a full load yesterday morning. I go to the window with my proof of residence and the woman tells me that I am going to have to pay $20 for the refrigerator on the trailer, because the door was still on it. I said "OK, I wont throw it away", then she wants to charge me for the rest of the material on the trailer ($28/ton). I ask "WHY"? She tells me that it is CONSTRUCTION material. So I give in and try to pay for it, but I have no cash/check. I go home and figure I may as well burn all of the wood on the trailer to get rid of the CONSTRUCTION material. I burn all of the wood, load up some more trash and I go back to the landfill. Again the same woman tells me I have to pay for CONSTRUCTION material. "Where do you see CONSTRUCTION material? That is all trash on there. How can you construct anything with what I am throwing away?" She disagrees and refuses to come out and look at the load. I get a phone number and call this person to try and get an explaination of what CONSTRUCTION material means to the landfill. I explain my situation with the house, she understands and calls the landfill to check and make sure that the material looks like trash. I get back to the window and the woman tells me, "I still say its CONSTRUCTION material, I am going to let you through free of charge for this load, but do not come back unless you want to pay $$. That is when I told the woman that I never understood why people would throw loads of trash on the side of the road, UNTIL NOW! I only have about 5 "trash can fulls" left to dump. I guess I could go down the road and put a little bit of trash in each can that I pass. I wish that I could just do the right thing and bring it to the landfill.

I understand that someone could possibly be making money by cleaning up and making dumps for free. But, what is someone to do when they move into a house like mine with "collectors" living there for 50 years?

    Throw that crap on the side of the road. Then call your brother and have him send over Pimp C and his homies to go pick it up. Problem solved.

    Jason, you wish you were pimp c. don't you be trying to clown me or else I will have to bring up the Ice Ice Baby.

    Ice ice baby (x2)
    All right stop collaborate and listen
    Ice is back with my brand new invention
    Something grabs a hold of me tightly
    Flow like a harpoon daily and nightly
    Will it ever stop yo I don't know
    Turn off the lights and I'll glow
    To the extreme I rock a mic like a vandal
    Light up a stage and wax a chump like a candle
    Dance go rush to the speaker that booms
    I'm killing your brain like a poisonous mushroom
    Deadly when I play a dope melody
    Anything less than the best is a felony
    Love it or leave it you better gain weight
    You better hit bull's eye the kid don't play
    If there was a problem yo I'll solve it
    Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it Now that the party is jumping
    With the bass kicked in and the vegas are pumpin'
    Quick to the point to the point no faking
    I'm cooking MC's like a pound of bacon
    Burning them if you ain't quick and nimble
    I go crazy when I hear a cymbal
    And a hi-hat with a souped up tempo
    I'm on a roll and it's time to go solo
    Rollin' in my 5.0
    With my rag-top down so my hair can blow
    The girlies on standby waving just to say hi
    Did you stop no I just drove by
    Kept on pursuing to the next stop
    I busted a left and I'm heading to the next block
    The block was dead
    Yo so I continued to A1A Beachfront Avenue
    Girls were hot wearing less than bikinis
    Rockman lovers driving Lamborghinis
    Jealous 'cause I'm out getting mine
    Shay with a guage and Vanilla with a nine
    Reading for the chumps on the wall
    The chumps acting ill because they're so full of eight balls
    Gunshots rang out like a bell
    I grabbed my nine all I heard were shells
    Falling on the concrete real fast
    Jumped in my car slammed on the gas
    Bumpet to bumper the avenue's packed
    I'm trying to get away before the jackers jack
    Police on the scene you know what I mean
    They passed me up confronted all the dope fiends
    If there was a problem yo I'll solve it
    Check out the hook while my DJ revolves it
