I stand corrected especially on one area, I just remembered that there are indeed cart corrals out there in the parking lots, unfortunately my walmart has like 1 on a huge parking lot which is really not enough, but it is true that most stores do have a lot of them, if they are nearby a car and that person still doesn’t return the cart, then that’s a problem.
Maybe that’s why I see staff collecting carts, due to the lack of cart corrals, maybe stores that lack enough of them do this instead, but I am also debating within myself about the fact that there are tons of people that still do this mistake with enough cart corrals.
So I personally think the right conclusion would be, such people are not bad, but not responsible and are ignorant. When possible, returning would make life easier for staff that do collect carts too, they don’t have to go all the way to collect all of them. And of course, avoiding the risks of the carts hitting other cars in-case of natural wind, great points that didn’t come to my mind at first.
I think this one wouldn’t go under bad though as I said, it has to be a lot more than not returning cart back to the car corrals to be a bad person…right??
Yeah, I can see it being an issue when there’s a massive parking lot and no return locations. I’m sure some stores did the studies on how much time and workforce it saved to put those corrals out in the lot as most people are inclined to do a bit to help out others.
For reasons that I can’t quite fathom, they’ve been taking them away in California. Stores that used to have them, don’t any more.
Often there isn’t even a safe place outside. You could put them up on to the sidewalk in front of the store, but is that the best place? It’s convenient for the workers but it also gets in the way.

The newer built stores especially have no problem with this, but the older not so well planned ones are the ones with these issues.
