An unfortunate Ford Ranger has been transformed into a dumpster after it blocked off a garbage area and upset the locals.
Angry Filipinos from the city of Baguio, who rely on the designated garbage area to dispose of their refuse, decided to make their payback somewhat poetic.
If they want to park their car illegally in the garbage area – their revenge is to turn the truck into garbage.

In the end, they did a pretty good job, stacking the white Ford Ranger’s rear bed with bags full of garbage.
The 2024 Ford F-150 Pro Access tailgate is their most accessible tailgate ever, with a small swing-out door built-in.
While done far more consensually, this Fiat 500e was turned into the world’s smallest garbage truck.
What’s more, they blocked the front and rear ends of the truck so that the hapless owner couldn’t make an escape after seeing the error of their ways.
While the windows were thankfully shut, one can only imagine the smell by the time they’d exacted their revenge… or how many cycles the owner had to do in the carwash.

The event was shared by the government page of ‘Sangguniang Panlungsod ng Baguio‘, which translates to ‘City Council of Baguio’ on May 22.
“Reminder to car owners: Please make sure you do not park in areas designated by barangays for trash pick-up,” the post read.
A follow-up post a couple of days later from ‘Pinget Barangay‘, which translates as ‘village of Pinget’, reinforced the message.
It was accompanied by a quote from American political activist, Helen Keller.
“Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much,” it read.
Instead of the blunt reminder to do the right thing or suffer the consequences, instead this post also featured pictures of locals cleaning up the area.
‘Monitoring of garbage at the collection areas’, performing ‘clean & green activities’ and ‘cleaning canals’.
It’s a stark illustration of the Philippines’ ongoing battle with waste management and the importance of proper parking etiquette.
