It is not the DPW truck drivers responsibility to pick this up. If they started doing that, others would start doing this hopping the DPW would pick up items like this.
The town by laws are in place to address situations like this.
Unfortunately, like other issues posted here, it seems a little too much effort for some departments to follow through.

Thank you for reporting.
