In Commonwealth v. Perdue, 564 A.2d 489, 493 (Pa.Super. 1989), appeal denied 524 Pa. 627, 574 A.2d 68 (1990), the Superior Court of Pennsylvania held that there is no objectively reasonable expectation of privacy with respect to a garbage bag or garbage can that has been placed outside for collection, because it is located in an area with public access and hence open to public inspection.
