Trash on I-20 entrance/exit ramps

Does anyone have any insight on what they're going to do to improve the landscaping and discourage the encampments?

I finally found where my tire went 3 years ago. I no longer live down there, so just keep it! Thanks

Peachtree Road Race with runners who are usually pretty orderly and conscientious. Head out on 10th St. and people just throw all their trash in the street even through there are trash cans.

Littering is a way of life in Atlanta. It doesn't have to be.

They seem to like trash strewn all around them, that’s why they are quick to get the bus shelters surrounded, and parking lots too.

Locals were raised to disrespect everything.

At LA fitness locals pee all over the seat because why bother lifting it? They don’t care about the next person needing to sit down. I yell at them for being so inconsiderate.

It all come back to parenting.

Now I’ve got to email Walmart and complain about the parking lot trash at Howell Mill location.

I've seen stalls people crap all over the place. I'm like how do they even manage to do that unless your chasing something around in there and jumping up and down and dancing around as you crap. I think it's done on purpose. Disgusting, but on purpose. I have used the ladies room if the men's room is completely trashed and unusable in my opinion. Public restrooms in general is typically never a good thing to use unless you have to. lol

It’s an area that needs innovation. Atlanta has a dislike of cleaning even when it’s their job and are getting paid.

We need smoother toilet surfaced with less nooks and crannies for pee & boogers and crap to never get cleaned off. Airplane lavatories are sorta like that.

I think self-cleaning walls like a wall water fountain that ribs once a day with diluted bleach is a start.

Bathroom fixtures in general are hard to clean so we need more stuff Jutting fromthe wall so its not getting splattered with toothpaste spit, etc.
