(Cane stalks from a guarapo vendor get dumped at this bin. They're after the sugar.)
@MLClark Does anyone clean up that scattered mess? Or is it left lying in the grass?
@WordsmithFL
The garbage truck came 15 minutes later!
In Colombia there are a LOT more street people who pick through garbage for scrap goods and leave a mess behind. In some parts, the heaps of garbage are a common neighbourhood sight.
To counteract this phenomenon, there's a robust team of cleaners who are out most every day tidying and tending to city property. This park is right next one such depot; I see the cleaners disperse to their first posts mid-run.
So, collectors first, the day's street sweepers next. It's gone by 8ish.
@MLClark Thank you for the clarification. The US has no such equivalent, alas.
