Questions and Answers
How do shopping carts get abandoned, anyway?
People “borrow” them. But people should know that removing carts from a store’s parking lot – or even possessing a cart without the store’s permission – is illegal and subject to a substantial fine.
What can residents do?
First, don’t be part of the problem. There are many personal carts available, and most are inexpensive – much less than the potential fine for taking a store cart.
What can you do if you see an abandoned cart?
To report abandoned shopping carts, please call Maintenance Services at (951) 736-2266, or complete an Online Service Request.
