Claims of discrimination are being aimed at Waste Management on Marco Island after a gay couple, Tom Schultz and Eric Baumbach, recorded a video of workers refusing to take their yard waste and even taking it out of the truck and throwing it on someone else’s yard instead.
A pride flag waves high above the couple’s front yard. According to Schultz and Baumbach, the flag represents their love for each other and their community. The couple said they put their waste in the yard for pickup, precisely the instructions Waste Management tells people to follow and yet they faced discrimination.
Waste Management sent a statement after the video got viral, saying it does not discriminate and the matter will be reviewed.
