Sublime Sunday a trashy Post
This is a post for Sublime Sunday, created by @c0ff33a here is what he says about it
Welcome to SublimeSunday a tag presenting you with the unique opportunity to post something a bit different, wacky, crazy or just whatever takes your fancy and instigated by me @c0ff33a
As the title states, I will warn you now this is going to be a trashy post.

Now I did warn you and this is indeed just simply trash on the sidewalk in NYC with all the high rise buildings in NYC a lot of garbage is generated and seeing piles of trash like this in the city is a common Site, one admittedly most people would never consider taking a photo of, but I do try to show the good the bad and even the trashy side of the city.
On a streets trash collection day, you will see big piles of trash on the sidewalk, the logistics of all the trash collection trucks on the city must be such a major undertaking, and one I hadn't given much thought about till preparing this post.
And if you think this shot was trashy...
It goes down the toilet from here

Well not exactly down the toilet, but you see all kinds of things in the trash piles on the street, such as furniture in the first shot and even something as simple as a toilet, something I have to admit before seeing this one something I thought I would never take a shot of while walking the streets in NYC.

And finishing off with this shot which fits with the Sublime theme with my edit, but not so much with the trashy side of the post, as these Pallets were stacked up outside a supermarket they had been loaded up with deliveries for the supermarket, and as they were emptied, they were stacked up ready to be loaded on the truck when they finish the job.

Your post title caught my attention! Only your camera could make trash look good ;)
Gosh from toilets to couches! Here only stuff in black bags get taken by our local municipality, but sadly many people here still litter the sidewalks, even though there's bins, it's a huge problem!

Yes here where I live in CT they also only pick up normal trash bags and recycling bigger stuff is picked up on two days a year unlike NYC where it seems to be they pick up everything
Thanks for your kind comment

Here in NM, you have to take the "bigger stuff" to the "transfer station." That's a place where they segregate out furniture, appliances, tools, etc. God knows what's done with it then, but at least you get rid of it. There is a local guy who makes the rounds every few weeks and will take scrap metal for recycling. You put your broken dishwasher, clothes dryer, hot water heater, etc. out by the mailbox -- and pretty soon, it disappears.
We had someone steal our old hot water heater right out of our front yard once before we could get around to hauling it off. On the one hand, it saved us the trouble of dealing with it. On the other hand, it was kind of creepy to think not only did someone know it was there -- because it wasn't real visible from the road ... but they managed to make off with it and we never heard a thing -- despite the fact we are home almost constantly.

We have bulk pickup twice a year where you can put out the big stuff or if you need to get rid of it at other times we also have a transfer station that you can take it to.
That is kind of creepy that someone took it without you even knowing

I remember walking down the street and seeing all of the things that people had put to the road. It is easy to forget that this is something that people in the big cities have to deal with.

Yeah there is no other way they can deal with it in most buildings it is centrally collected and the building Super brings it all out on collection day

Oh, I knew you were trashy, long before you became my friend!! Oh, yes!! :))Thankfully, they are on the Garbage is paid through your taxes program, so there isn't the problem with people not paying the fee and finding a dumpster. That seems to be a huge problem and people are always looking for a place to dump.
I never understood people that would roll down their windows on the highway and throw out a fast-food bag they were through with. Seriously! How disgusting. I wanted to pick it up and toss it in their yard. See how it feels!
Anyway, your toilet bowl was pretty crappy. LOL Oh, I wanted to say that since you posted it! But, the edits are wow! No kidding! So, much ado about nothing. LOL Hey!! Did you take the trash out tonight????

Sadly, we have lots of trash people dump on the side of the road because they don’t want to pay for trash pickup or the dumping fee for bigger items.

I’m not surprised that you made trash look so beautiful! Even though it was trash I really like your edits. It’s almost like the trash bags has a rainbow color to them. I’m glad it’s only like that for a few hours. It makes sense though with NYC being such a big city!

Wow! At last I see something familiar about your city. No old double bed mattresses, broken wardrobes, kitchen tables missing a leg or any of the other junk to be seen. Our building in a city suburb had a parking lot at the front and people would even stop and dump all of the fast food rubbish and empty bottles out of their cars. Old condoms included! It just so happens that the building was a church!
Oh! And I like the "Thinker's Throne" (Toilet) on the sidewalk.
Blessings!

Thinkers throne that was a term i had heard before and forgotten and it gave me a chuckle
I am sure if we looked closer we would fin more similarities, I cant believe the attitude of some people to just dump trash from their car on the street side even if other rubbish is there, how hard would it be to do it properly at there own place

Yes Indeed, I always have a bag for rubbish in my car and actually carry one in my camera bag so if I go to the beach and there is trash I do a clean up as well as taking photos, but sadly to many seem to thing thats up to someone else to clean up after them

Comfy trash on the streets - just chilling out on a Sofa! Dumping trash randomly is a bit of a world wide problem, we have an issue with people dumping their waste in the countryside around me - which spoils nature for everyone else and is totally unnecessary - you can easily take your trash to an official tip to be disposed of properly.
A toilet in the street is definately different though - just as long as nobody decides to make use of the convenience!
Pallets will always get picked up quick, we collect many at work but weekly the lorry drivers will call in and take any we have spare - they get a little extra money in their pocket for selling them on at distribution points.

NYC is actually pretty good for the most part for the trash, you see piles like this but within a few hours the trucks come on their routes and clear it all away, what annoys me is like you say people that dump trash in the countryside
Makes me think back to the days I used to do long hikes often some over a few days and one of our rules was always to carry out anything we took in, and often we took out more as we cleaned up trash others had left behind
