Weird stuff found at the car wash.

On the heels of the "Cool stuff" found at the wash, I wondered what memorable weird stuff people have found. Here are a few that come to mind for me.

My sister found a generic looking plastic container with a hand-made label. On the label was the name of a funeral home and an individual. Yep, it contained some of the person's ashes. Making it weirder, I even knew the guy.

A passerby noticed someone lying next to his car in one of our bays at about 2 AM on a cold winter night. They called police, who determined the guy was dead. We didn't learn about it until the local paper called and asked us about it.

I have a friend that found a dildo.

What doozies do you have?
 
Years ago I had customer who claimed one of my employees stole a large knife from the door pocket of his car. I asked if I could take a look in his car and during my search I found a ziplock bag containing about a pound of weed? Does that count?:p
 
Used toilets left in the bays.

#1 & #2 that go in toilets.

Adulterers

Wife beater

Drug needles

Yup I got the phone books also!
The srangest thing was someone was filling one of my barrels with throw up. About 10 plastic shopping bags full. This happened once a week for about 6 weeks. I'm guessing they died. Of course this was before I had cameras up so I never saw the culprit.
 
Oh, fish on a hot summer day. What a stench!

Someone dropped off a dead deer.... actually any dead animal is bad though.

A garbage can of cologne, a 1990 basketball trophy and some of Sam's Viagra.

What always gets me is full contrainers of liquid or wedding pictures.

At least they left the fish in the cooler. For some reason they like to dump them in my trash bins.
 
I watched a guy walk over to the dumpster with a cooler half full of dead shrimp, he stopped in front of the open dumpster then turned and dumped it on the ground right next to it.
 
I had someone leave a tree stump in one of the bays. Tree was 3 to 4 feet across plus all the roots. I could not even budge it by hand. I had to use a pickup and chain to pull it out.
 
I remember one time I saw a guy pull a decent size bird from his ranch hand (bird was dead but still in one piece), decided to just throw it on the ground rather than in the trash can right next to him. Also I had a customer complaining about a vacuum being clogged, so I went to unclog it and to my surprise the reason it was clogged was a used tampon. Lets just say gloves were used and I had to do a deep cleaning of the vacuum claw.
