LA woman calls out neighborhood’s alleged ‘serial litterer’ dumping ‘ungodly amounts’ of Chick-fil-A packaging: ‘Have you heard of a trash can?’

The neighbours cleaned it all up, but allegedly the pile came back.

A Los Angeles TikToker says someone has turned part of her Echo Park neighborhood into an unofficial dumping ground for Chick-fil-A packaging, and her viral video has neighbors wondering whether a single repeat offender is behind the growing pile of trash. In a recent TikTok, creator Oddbry (@oddbry) addressed someone she claims regularly leaves fast-food waste along Colton Street in Echo Park.

“If your name is Lexi and you drive a blue sedan and you drive up and down Colton Street in Echo Park in L.A., this video is for you,” she began. Oddbry never clarified how she determined the suspect’s name.

Oddbry then posed two questions to the alleged litterer: “First question, how much money do you spend per month on Chick-fil-A? Second question, have you heard of a trash can?”

Oddbry investigated and reported her findings

According to Oddbry, she parks on Colton Street every day before walking home. Over time, she noticed what she described as an unusually large amount of discarded Chick-fil-A cups, bags, receipts, and containers. “I’m talking ungodly amounts of Chick-fil-A,” she says in her post.

She explained that the repeated sightings led her to believe the trash might not come from random passersby. “And so I started kind of thinking like, what? Who is this?” she said. “Like, all one person’s Chick-fil-A?” Chick-fil-A has not commented on Oddbry’s post.

Based on the pattern she observed, Oddbry said she developed a theory that one person buys Chick-fil-A, stops at the same location, and throws the packaging onto the street before driving away. To support her claim, she included footage showing a sizable accumulation of fast-food litter.

Oddbry said neighbors eventually cleaned the area themselves after the trash became difficult to ignore. “It was so bad that the neighbors actually cleaned up the street,” she said. “I saw the people whose homes this was in front of cleaning up the street.”

However, she said the cleanup did not solve the problem. “Immediately after they cleaned it up, one by one, the Chick-fil-A is coming back,” she said. “That’s how I know that it wasn’t just all at one moment. It just got dumped there. It’s been piling the [expletive] up.”

She ended her message with a direct appeal to the person she believes is responsible. “You have a problem, and you need to stop.”

The video drew comments, including one person who claimed to live nearby. “Hi I’m your neighbor apparently. Can we team up and catch this guy? My roommate and I call him the Serial Chicken Litterer,” the commenter wrote.

Another viewer suggested a different approach, writing, “Go ask the Chick-fil-A workers. They’ll know lol.” At the time of writing, no public reports from the Los Angeles Police Department or the Los Angeles Bureau of Sanitation appear to identify a suspect connected to the alleged littering described.

Littering remains illegal in California. Under the state’s Vehicle Code, drivers and passengers are prohibited from discarding waste on public roads or highways, and local governments may enforce additional anti-litter ordinances.
