** Politically, a major strike by waste disposal workers in the winter of 1978-79 was one of the triggers that saw the UK's election of Prime Minister UsefulNotes/MargaretThatcher later in the year. Aided by right-wing newspapers publishing graphic photos of uncollected waste piling up in the streets and attracting rats -- which became iconic images -- Thatcher would be elected PM on an anti-union ticket.
** Another noteworthy example is the [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Memphis_sanitation_strike Memphis Sanitation Strike]] of 1968, in which the city's sanitation workers — many of whom were black — went on strike after two black garbagemen [[CruelAndUnusualDeath were killed in their truck's trash compactor]][[note]]They'd been trying to shelter from the rain and couldn't go into a nearby building due to segregation laws, so they went into their truck instead[[/note]]. Memphis's mayor, Henry Loeb, was a white supremacist who opposed the then-ongoing UsefulNotes/CivilRightsMovement and refused to recognize the union or make any concessions and had the police brutally suppress a pro-strike demonstration, resulting in a teenage boy being killed by police. Infamously, UsefulNotes/MartinLutherKingJr was assassinated in Memphis while supporting the strike.
** In Lebanon, especially Beirut, trash collection has been a chronic problem owing to a decades-old system that has gone unreformed due to [[https://www.nytimes.com/2019/12/03/world/middleeast/lebanon-protests-corruption.html abysmal corruption and vested political interests]].
