Where can you legally pick up a discarded item for evidence that violates a law?

A subject's garbage on a curb or city property

Discarded items on a subject's curb or on city property are considered to be in a public place and can be collected as evidence without a warrant. Options B, C, and D all involve entering a private space without a warrant, which would violate the Fourth Amendment. It is important to only collect evidence from a legal and appropriate location to avoid any issues with the admissibility of evidence in a court case.
