When Stephanie and her boyfriend were noticing the flooding outside their Allentown, Pennsylvania apartment, they saw something besides cars getting out of the parking lot: the complex's dumpsters, taking a free ride in the overflowing rain on Tuesday (August 4) as Tropical Storm Isaias rages on.

"The dumpsters traveled across the entire lot, missing the two cars that remained there, and then busted through the chain link fence to be swept away down the creek-turned-raging river," Stephanie tells Newsflare.

My boyfriend and I suddenly noticed major flooding out our apartment window in Allentown, PA, around 1pm EST on August 5th. This is a view of what's normally the parking lot! Luckily, most people got their cars out on time. The dumpsters traveled across the entire lot, missing the two cars that remained there, and then busted through the chain link fence to be swept away down the creek-turned-raging river. The waters receded about an hour and a half later.
