A TikToker named Mrs. Denton (@mrscandyladyy21) caught a USPS employee red-handed, tossing loads of mail into a green dumpster. This suspicious activity occurred early Saturday, around 7:15 in the morning.
"This mailman is throwing away people's mail!" she exclaims. "I swear I'm not making this up. He is dumping mail. Federal mail... in the dumpster!"
The video shows the postal worker repeatedly returning to a white USPS-marked van, retrieving containers of mail, and emptying them into the dumpster. The TikToker notes that the worker appears to be looking around cautiously while disposing of the mail.
Concerns raised in the video include the potential loss of important documents such as checks and bills. The TikToker also mentions her own recent issues with mail delivery, suggesting a possible connection to the observed behavior.
Mail-dumping incidents have occurred elsewhere, such as a recent case in D.C. where a postal worker was caught tossing mail in a neighborhood dumpster.
So far, USPS hasn't commented on this latest incident. Individuals who suspect mail theft or dumping are typically advised to contact their local postal inspectors or file a report through the USPS website.
