Door to Door leaflet advertisements.

Somone placed one of these little leaflet things offering lawn service..... For like the 200th time! I got sick of this junk being dropped on my property so I took the leaflet and chucked it into the middle of the street. Will the owner of that business get fined if they don't pick thier stuff up?

No, you will. You threw it.

Edit: Now pick it up.

I picked it up, but I noticed another leaflet laying out there. Will they get fined for that one?

Probably not because someone else probably threw it.

Sounds like a horrible excuse to let junk accumilate on people's property, while they're away. D:< I dislike these flyers!

Fly posting is illegal in most places, just contact your local council if it bothers you. They may fine them then.zanelli

Thanks for the suggestion I'll go ahead and follow through with that. I was just checking the various rules and what not for the city and it's got a lawn/trash ordinance in effect, all the more reason to get rid of this stuff.

What's wrong with them dropping off a leaflet. They're just trying to earn a living.ace-of-spades93

Why should you be paid? ace-of-spades93

Sigh. Please tell me you're joking.ace-of-spades93

I say you get em. If you have a gun, use it. If not, then just send them alot of prank calls saying like "i know what you did. and i will get you" and breathe heavily and stuff.

It's a piece of paper, calm down!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Agent-Zero

No, you calm down! Can't you realize that those leaflets are defiling this poor soul's property?

What effort does it require on your part to just pick the leaflet up and recycle them? Some poor bloke has to trudge around hundreds of houses posting these things for peanuts and you think that you somehow deserve money for his work? Why don't you report him to the police for trespass and littering on your property while your at it.ace-of-spades93

or he kills him..... he cant put it there if he is dead.

Then there'd be thousands of those disgusting leaflets flying around.

Make your own leaflet asking for them to stop putting theirs on your property. Take this leaflet and hang it on the front door of the nearest office for said company.

Actually make tons of them and do it every day. Maybe twice a day even.

Just throw them away. Do not think it's illegal. dave123321

These stupid leaflets remind me of a comedians joke which says, "When someone hands you a flyer, it's like they're saying here you throw this away." I'm getting lazy throwing these things away for everyone! >=o

Off-topic: Plums are my favorite fruit.

On-topic: You are choosing to pick it up. you dont have to.

stop littering dude. you have to just throw it away. I get tons of junk mail each year and have to throw it all away, I always think of some dead tree.

Well you're complaining about them dropping these on the Land that you own. So it's not a community service. You're just another lazy git that expects money for nothing.ace-of-spades93

Edit: I got a nice suggestion earlier about checking with the city council; it's reasonable enough, so I just need to wait till tommorow, considering the time right now. If you wanna continue discussing my actions my actions feel free. Seems like more of a general issue, which was the whole fining of the litterbugs!!! RAWR!

I didn't have an issue with you until you said that you should get paid for it, at that point I nearly lost the will to live.ace-of-spades93

That was a bit of dark humor on my part. No offense intended. PSH, get paid for picking up little leaflets attached to my house.......... lol that sounds kindof awesome anyways.

edit: fixed the quote box, yay!

For clarification what is illegal is advertising with a sign or flyer that uses your property . So say I have a restaurant , I cannot post a sign/flyer using your house as a way to advertise to anyone who may be walking by. What is legal is having a leaflet used to advertise the restaurant to the people living at that particular address. dave123321

Who exactly would be to blame if some guy is walking by and reports that advertising on the property

The guy that was walking by.

It would depend on the intention and size of the advertisement I suppose. Not too familiar with the exact laws. dave123321

Eh, alrighty :| that little bit of info was interesting.

Don't pretend it was an attempt at humour, it was just bloody pig ignorance.dave123321

Offtopic: I assure you I want money, but the means are beyond this topic... anything related to making this "fictitious" income is purely out of humor and spite of litterbugs which I just cleaned up after about.... 30 minutes ago?

Wow, that's insane... The guy's trying to cook and suddenly food goes flying all over place, because of.... water heater sales man...

I'd totally put one of those up, I think I need to make the one I have bigger or more brightly colored though.
