A distraught person filed a 311 complaint this afternoon seeking help with a trash container outside the Four Seasons Hotel:
I accidentally threw away something important in the trash receptacle outside of the four seasons on 220 Boylston St. Is there any way to find someone who can open it? It’s a shoe I recently purchased on Newbury Street. Just one.
Like the job UHub is doing? Consider a contribution. Thanks!

Discarding only one shoe. In a locked trash receptacle. Belonging to a hotel open 24-hours a day. Contacting 311 instead of visiting the hotel's Front Desk.
This story cries out for a podcast investigation!
Trash receptacle

The trash receptacle doesn't belong to the hotel. It belongs to the city. 311 is the correct number to dial.
I assumed it was a dumpster-type receptacle for hotel waste...

...rather than a public trash barrel.
There's a picture of it

The 311 complaint has a picture of the city-owned trash drop.
It's also marked as closed/resolved, but with no comment. Now we'll never know the outcome.
Whah!!

It would be irresponsible NOT to speculate!

Assuming it’s a Big Belly.
Is there a better alternative to the Big Belly contracts/purchases? I see so many complaints about them being too full to open, jammed, unsecured. I’m sure some of that is the pickup schedule, or maybe they’re not sending a “full” signal.

Just looked at pic. Add this complaint about Big Belly: it’s another place for a-holes to put advertisements to loathe.
