If it’s at the curb then it’s not stealing as it’s actually not on
your property. It’s on city property at least here in MI. And most
consider once it’s in the dumpster it’s no longer wanted. If it is
actually stealing then the truck would be stealing it when it comes
and empties the dumpster.
The idea is to keep things out of the land fill, so I don’t see why
not take what you can use. Also the main issue with some places is
that people make a mess, which is why they don’t want people to take
things. Altho some I’m sure are just selfish not nice people too.
