How many of you found garbage buried around your place from past owners?

Even stuff like Kayaks, Jon Boats, plastic pond hoppers, even with just a trolling motor need registered, but if it never leaves your pond, you likely never bothered.

AFAIK only powered boats need to be registered here. Not sure what the procedure is, only ever had a canoe or kayak. I think it's done thru Fish & Game, much like any other off-road vehicle.

Had an old fiberglass shower stall to get rid of when we remodeled the bathroom about 10 years back. Don't know how they got it in there, but I had to cut it in pieces to get it out. Went into the "demoliton" dumpster at the dump. They'll take 'most anything there, but it costs...there's an "official" schedule, but the actual price is whatever the dump attendant feels like charging that day.

So, our last trip to the dump with a full 6'4x16 trailer of stuff from old house, I finally accepted that I would probably need to pay $60-80. Guy at dump looks, and says "that weedeater head any good? Whats wrong with that 6" buffer" Nothing, just got to get rid of them. He unloaded those to his truck and no charge

True here too, but someone buys a kayak, and they don't keep the "origine of manufacture cert" or whatever, and you can't title it. Same with a lot of those plastic jon boats, ect. Really common are aluminum jon boats, that are from 60/70/80s, and have been bounced around, no title, and you really can't register them and ad a motor of any sort. So, they often end up in some vacant woods.

Damn, title to a canoe or kayak? Around here, they are bought and sold like trading cards... No title needed, or as far as I know, no title comes with when new.

I saw on the local news the other day that VT is closing some roadside pulloffs due to the increasing trash being dumped. And not just empty Coors Light cans, large piles of trash, and believe it or not, they showed and believe it or not, they showed a full sized camper dumped.

I understand why people do it, either lack of places to bring, or cost prohibited. The alternative is raising taxes to open/accept trash. We live in a disposable society that doesn't help either.

The only reason here that you need proof of ownership is if you want to put a motor on it.

Now that I cleaned up any junk on my 3 acres people drive by and start over again. Last year someone did a drive by in front of my place. I’m guessing someone sat in theback of a pickup with a load of tires and threw them out as they drove down the road. About 20 total. Some on rims, some bare, sized from small riding lawnmower sized tires all the way up to truck tires. About 5 ended up on my place.

Same where I live. While OHRVs need to be registered in order to be used off the owner's property no title is required, or even available. Not sure about motorized boats, but that definitely applies to ATVs and snowmobiles.

Same thing here.... rowboat, no registration. Tiny electric trolling motor... registered and taxed.

Glad we have a free county dump... hauled a bunch of discarded treasures when we bought our land.
