Complaints to 311 about mattresses on Boston Move-In Day. Allston/Brighton and Mission Hill, of course, but a fair number of complaints from South Boston, too. Also see: Allston Christmas Bingo - North End edition.

Just took a trip to the Polish Triangle (loading up on pierogi and kielbasa) area and can confirm that Allston Christmas is in full swing there also.

I give the Boston DPW, ISD and others credit for staying on top of the problem with the annual trashing of our neighborhood. There were numerous mattresses and assorted household items out on sidewalks around here. Even garbage just tossed out in open bags.

Again, thanks to the men and women out there that kept this situation from getting out of hand.
Have a great Labor Day weekend!
