I moved to a different town a couple years ago. Trash removal is contracted out to a private company. This company has a "transfer station", or what we used to call a "dump". The first time I went there, I noticed an area where discarded bike were deposited. I inquired about the bikes; someone already beat me to it. Turns out a friend of the owner of the trash removal company already had dibs on any/all bikes deposited there. Dead-end for me.
