He’s infamous. I saw him in RSM a few weeks ago when the pic of him parked at Trader Joe’s went viral. 10/10 dedication

Wait he drives this thing on the road?

Yes, pics have been on fb/reddit for years! People have seen him in SF or Vegas, don’t remember which one. I’m gonna try to hunt down a link
31
How is that thing legal?! Actually, forget that, how can it move?! Or see out of it
6
Fucking seriously. I get ticketed for having slightly too dark of tint on my front windows, but this fuckstick can drive around with ZERO visibility in every direction?

Please find the link id love to see that 😂

Irvine police do not seem to tolerate people like him.

Can someone tow it into a fire - there must be one close by.

Someone should tow your house into a nearby fire.

Wow! Unbelievable

Irvine is just a meme for this subreddit now.

Irvine has been a meme for the entire country for a while.

For good reason too

These hoarders are mentally ill. Very sad

With the RePlanet centers closing down across CA, many take their recycling to different facilities in Santa Ana and Irvine where they can be redeemed.
15
I read on Reddit that if there are no recycling facilities within a certain radius, grocery stores are legally required to pay you for them
9
This is true but many of the stores that are legally required to pay you are unaware of their responsibilities and will straight up refuse to take the cans.
6
Years ago when I worked in a small grocery store in Irvine this was the case. Shitty part is people would bring carts or trash bags worth of recycle and no knowledge of what the value count is so we had to hand count every can and bottle.
2
Report them to the proper authorities then. The law fucks us on the regular, we should use it to fuck them back when we can.
1
I'd like to know more and whether any stores in San Clemente take them....
2
replanet is closing down?
3
Yes, I believe they couldn’t make the program work as well now that China isn’t buying so much recycling from the US.

i saw a similarly done car behind the irvine costco at the recycling place
1
I wonder if the Irvine SS allow him to do this because he literally removes all of the plastics off of their pristine, empty roadways?
5
This is normal now I guess.
2
This #trashtag thing is getting out of hand.
2
People are saying he's seen in different places and moves around.... but how ?? Multiple trips ? ... *confused*
2
if anything this should at least be a moving violation. that car is not designed for those loads. neither are the tires, suspension, brakes, etc. not to mention he can't see. and the big heap of hazards on top that can fall off.

Where is this in Irvine? I'm a photographer and would love to capture this. Thanks!
1†
Or you are Irvine company and you’re pissed off....

How did this guy get past the sentries?
17
Haha. Good point. If the OP is reading I can prove I’m a legit photographer and not a narc 😜

RIP innocent carbage man

i've seen it a few times in the past week. its at the intersection of Alton and technology where shell gas station is by irvine spectrum.
He parks just outside the gas station parking. can't miss the car when you drive in.
There is a carl's JR right next to the gas station. Can't miss it. Good luck!
11
saw this yesterday at the shell station off alton by the walmart

Across the street near 50 technology now

Taking pics of homeless people is so 2004 dude

Haha. I don’t see a person. That’s a work of art
-2†
It's also someone's home.

Another sighting! I saw that car at Costco a few weeks back

Last Friday (25 Oct), this car was parked next to Patch Coffee in near Foothill Ranch/Portola Hills. We should all take selfies with it, post it on Reddit, and track its data marks through the County, or through SoCal....ready, set, go!!!

Need to see this thing in action

Holy shit I just saw this today picking up candy for Halloween haha

He parked here and the Property Restoration van just pulled up. Charges by the square foot - he's getting a deal!
