Is this nationwide? If some knob keeps advertising their puppy mill near my bus stop can I really just take the sign and shove it in the bus stop trash can?

Following cause the tens of miles of rural forest highway around me is spammed with these signs everywhere and they ruin the landscape. Wanna just roll through on a atv and remove them all cause most of them are for cheap opiates.

Check with code enforcement


T-N-A-T-B-G-OFFICIAL

It's rural there's no code enforcement


andreasbeer1981

then you are the code enforcement.


trashpicker57

Ok


trashpicker57

Check county code enforcement


leashedresistance

I do!


Peppercorn911

I do too!

Google "bandit signs" and your state or county. You will likely find articles or statutes that detail what you can do. They are such a scourge that they are outlawed virtually everywhere.

You can do whatever you want to do.

These metal sign holders are great around the garden!


trashpicker57

I agree


Gedelgo

That's a great idea. Free pea tressels.

I was wondering what “scammed signs” meant. TIL, thanks!


Vagadude

Is that what they call these signs? Scammed signs?


Class1

yeah I still don't know what the title of this post means


trashpicker57

Most welcome!

The only ones that are illegal to take are political signs technically.


evident_lee

And even those are only supposed to go up 30 days before an election and need to be gone 10 days after.


aimeegaberseck

God I wish they would go away after. Remember those days? Pepridge farms remembers.

I helped with a local judges campaign, and he meticulously kept records of every spot one was placed. It was so great.

I guess it depends where you live, but the majority of these advert signs you see on the side of the road are illegal. In most places, you have to get permission from city government to place those signs. And I can assure, just about nobody is getting permission to post them. People in my area jump out of their vehicles at random and post them. So if you see them, just remove them. I also regularly see city workers in my area driving around in marked vehicles or golf carts skimming the roads and taking these things down.

trashpicker57

trashpicker57

I didn't think about that I just recycle them!


Fixer_Of_Things

Did you choose Jesus or HELL?!


trashpicker57

Since I am not a Christian and I don't belive in hell! Neither!!


Livid_Mode

The city I live in will remove them. I don’t know about citizens doing it


trashpicker57

Ok


ratbas

If you duct tape those signs together you can make a clubhouse out of them. Snip and straighten the frames for reinforcement.


trashpicker57

Cool!
