Call the cops. File a nuisance report. Let them handle it.

If you want to catch those coons yourself you can do it with a Victor 220 conibear trap. Get a 5 gallon bucket lay it on its side inside the dumpster, and throw some dead fish in it. Weight it down so it won't move. Set the trap right at the front of it and secure it with strong wire at the hoops of the springs. Be sure not to hinder the action of the trap. Fill in any gaps so the coon has to go through the trap to get to the bait. When the coon sticks his head into the trap it will close up on him and kill him. Now some serious words of caution.Be careful as Coons can carry rabies, so never get yourself in a situation where one can bite or scratch you. If that were to happen contact your local Health Department. Also you have to be very careful there are no kids around orpeople that could get caught in the trap, traps are dangerous and should only be used in a place where you are sure you won't have any people come into contact with it, and follow local laws.

I believe if your not afraid of them, When they get in the dumpster Put something (gas poison or such) in it and close the lid real fast sit on it so they cant get out Then just let it do its thing, We Trap skunks that spray dogs, attach my neighbors tractor to a box and put it over the trap, And gas them puppies, Carfeul you could cook them..

There is a really fast way to poison them. We use a powder insect killer, pick up at the local farm store, and mix with a can of Coke. So far after the coons have had a little to drink every single one has died. The farthest any of them have made it from the dish is about 4 feet. So it's quick and easy.

pour some anti-freeze around the dumpster, it has a very sweet taste to it, which coons like, and has a very deadly aftermath, which you like...it works out nice for everyone.
