According to a WBZ4 story, a Danvers man was upset with trash collectors after they wouldn’t take one of his trash containers since it was overweight. After some verbal abuse, he followed the trash collectors in his minivan around their route and tried to run them down. He was finally arrested after the trash collectors called the Danvers Police. 50 pounds is the maximum weight for a trash container in the town of Danvers, MA. See below for Danvers’ trash and recycling rules.
Putting weight on the amount of trash residents put out is nothing new. There are similar trash restrictions in Salem, MA.
