Resident called in to complain about the location of a dumpster that has been parked beside their residence for approximately 2 months. Problems related to the dumpster location precipitated after IU students began move-in activities earlier this month.

Sanitation has issued warnings to the resident for trash build-up, but the resident does not control the dumpster and has requested help to remediate the problem.
