Comment on I have an apartment where the dumpster is a car's drive away, and taking trash down involves 4 staircases. What is the best way to ameliorate this situation?
The US has very anti-tenant leanings in the judiciary, and bureaucracy overall.
So does every capitalist country. It’s very hard to imagine it being legal to rent an apartment without providing trash disposal.
Are we talking an actual car’s drive, or a USians idea of a distance that cannot be walked?
Yes. Europeans will walk 3 miles for a coffee, but consider 3 hours a long drive. Americans will drive 100 ft to take out trash, but will drive for 12 hours straight to leave their state.
Likely the latter.
