The sole issue in this case is whether police invaded defendants’ protected possessory or privacy rights under Article I, section 9, of the Oregon Constitution by searching their garbage after the sanitation collection service collected it and voluntarily turned it over to police. We conclude that the answer is no and that the trial court correctly denied defendants’ motions to suppress evidence obtained as a result of the search. We therefore affirm the judgments convicting defendants of manufacturing a controlled substance, ORS 475.992(1), possession of a controlled substance, ORS 475.992(4), and frequenting a place where controlled substances are used, ORS 167.222.
The pertinent facts are straightforward and undisputed. Police obtained information about multiple purchases of iodine — a chemical used in the manufacture of methamphetamine — from a feed store in Sweet Home. The information included the license plate number of a car driven by the person who purchased the iodine. Police traced the car’s registration to Sharon Howard, one of the codefendants in this case, and obtained the address of her residence in Sweet Home. As police would later discover, codefendant Gary Dawson also was living at the Sweet Home residence with Howard.
In an effort to obtain information about possible drug activities at the residence, police contacted the sanitation company that collects garbage in the area. The manager of the company agreed to permit police to inspect defendants’ garbage on the next scheduled collection day. On that day, the manager followed the garbage collection truck in a pickup truck. Defendants’ trash can had been set on the curb and was ready for collection. With a police detective observing, a sanitation employee placed the trash can into the manager’s pickup truck, rather than dump the contents into the regular garbage collection truck, and left a replacement can at the curbside. The detective followed the manager, who then drove to a remote location. There, the detective inspected the contents of the can. In the search, the detective discovered several items relating to the possession and manufacture of *441controlled substances, along with mail addressed to codefen-dant Dawson. Two months later, following the same procedure, police conducted a second search of defendants’ garbage and discovered several additional items relating to illegal drug activity. Based on the evidence from the two searches, police obtained a warrant to search the Sweet Home residence. In executing the warrant, police found and seized evidence of the use and manufacture of methamphetamine and possession of marijuana.
Before trial, defendants moved to suppress the evidence obtained as a result of the warrantless search of their garbage, arguing that the search violated Article I, section 9, of the Oregon Constitution. More specifically, defendants argued that they retained a protected possessory or privacy interest in the discarded garbage and that the police therefore had to obtain a warrant before inspecting it. In response, the state argued that the garbage was “abandoned” property in which defendants no longer had a protected privacy or pos-sessory interest. The trial court denied the motion to suppress, and defendants were tried and convicted by a jury on all counts. They appeal, challenging the denial of the motion to suppress and renewing the arguments that they made to the trial court.
When a seizure or search is carried out by the police without a warrant, the state must demonstrate by preponderant evidence that the seizure or search did not violate Article I, section 9.1 State v. Cook, 332 Or 601, 608, 34 P3d 156 (2001). The state can meet that burden in either or both of two ways. First, it can establish that the circumstances of the seizure or search fit within an exception to the warrant requirement. State v. Knox, 160 Or App 668, 673, 984 P2d 294, rev den, 329 Or 527 (1999). Second, the state can show that a defendant had no protected privacy or possessory interest in the property, in which case the examination or *442confiscation of the property is not considered a search or seizure under Article I, section 9. State v. Purvis, 249 Or 404, 410-11, 438 P2d 1002 (1968).
We begin by analyzing whether defendants had a possessory interest in their garbage when the sanitation company, after collecting it in the regular course, voluntarily turned it over to police for inspection. On that point, our recent decision in State v. Galloway, 198 Or App 585, 109 P3d 383 (2005), is highly instructive. The defendants in Galloway had placed their garbage in closed containers in front of their yards for collection by a sanitation company. While the garbage sat in the containers at the curbside awaiting the scheduled collection, police opened the closed garbage cans and searched their contents. We concluded that the searches violated Article I, section 9, reasoning:
“[DJefendants had arrangements with garbage collection companies that specified where the garbage cans were to be placed for collection and when collection would occur. Defendants abided by those agreements by placing their garbage inside of garbage cans and placing the cans in the locations required for curbside collection.
“Thus, defendants placed their garbage cans and the contents of those cans in a particular place in order to facilitate a limited purpose, viz., pick-up and disposal by a designated collection company. Defendants did not implicitly authorize anyone else to paw through their garbage and view or take items of garbage. Rather, they placed their garbage in cans by the curb with the understanding that the garbage collection company — and only the garbage collection company — would remove the bags from the cans and carry the bags away.”
Galloway, 198 Or App at 595-96. In other words, by placing “their garbage in closed containers in front of their residences,” the defendants manifested “to objectively reasonable third parties that the contents were to be collected only by a designated entity.” Id. at 598. We therefore concluded that the defendants “retained protected possessory interests in the contents of their garbage cans until that collection occurred.” Id. (emphasis added).
*443Explicit in our reasoning in Galloway is the acknowledgment that, once garbage is collected by a sanitation or other refuse company, the analysis changes. At that point, the original “owner” of the garbage relinquishes his or her possessory interest to the company that contracted to collect it. From a possessory standpoint, the garbage belongs to the sanitation company after it is collected. Necessarily, if police then confiscate or inspect the garbage, they do not infringe on any possessory interest of the person who contracted with the sanitation company to take it away and dispose of it however the sanitation company might choose.2
Here, unlike in Galloway, police did not search defendants’ garbage at the curbside before it was collected. Rather, they first contacted the sanitation company. The manager of the company chose to turn the garbage over to police for inspection after the garbage was collected in the regular course of the sanitation company’s collection routine. Before the sanitation company collected defendants’ garbage, defendants maintained a possessory interest in the contents of their garbage can. But after it was collected, they did not— they had relinquished those interests to the sanitation company.
The remaining question is whether defendants retained a privacy interest in the contents of their garbage can, notwithstanding their abandonment of their possessory interests in it. On that point, the Supreme Court’s decision in Purvis is controlling. In Purvis, hotel staff reported to police their belief that a hotel guest — the defendant — was using drugs. When police came to investigate, hotel staff voluntarily assisted in that effort. At the direction of the hotel manager, housekeepers entered the defendant’s room, removed the trash from it, and took the trash to an officer, who then searched it. Purvis, 249 Or at 405-06. The defendant was criminally charged and, before trial, unsuccessfully moved to *444suppress the evidence obtained in the search. The trial court denied the motion, and, on appeal of his conviction, the defendant challenged that denial.
The Supreme Court considered the legality of the search under both the “Fourth Amendment and its counterpart in our own constitution,” Article I, section 9. Id. at 409. The court concluded that the motion to dismiss was properly denied, holding that a person has no privacy interest in items that he or she discards in a waste basket that are “destined to be thrown away” and that the person has “impliedly authorized to be hauled away.” Id. at 410-11. In so concluding, the court recognized that the defendant retained a privacy interest in his hotel room and that the housekeepers had to enter that room to obtain the garbage and turn it over to police. The housekeepers, however, were privileged to enter for that purpose. Id. at 411. As a result, when the defendant discarded his trash in the room, he impliedly authorized the discarded items to be taken away by the housekeeping staff. Id. at 410. That implicit authorization, in turn, terminated his privacy interest in the discarded garbage. Id. “Certainly,” the court emphasized, the defendant’s privacy interest was terminated once the housekeepers removed the trash from the room, at which point it was open to inspection by anyone, including police, if the hotel staff turned it over to them. Id.
As in Purvis, defendants’ garbage in this case was collected by someone whom defendants had authorized to collect it. Indeed, the authorization here was explicit, through the contractual arrangement between defendant Howard and the collection company. In all events, however, the sanitation company acted within its authority when it took defendants’ garbage for disposal. Once that garbage was in the collection company’s physical possession and control, defendants’ privacy interests in the contents of their garbage can were extinguished, as Purvis instructs. A fortiori, the ensuing police examination of the garbage and confiscation of evidence of defendants’ drug activities did not invade a privacy interest protected by Article I, section 9.
The dissent maintains that, for two reasons, “[w]e are free to ignore Purvis” in resolving the issue in this case. *445204 Or App at 456 (Schuman, J., dissenting). First, the dissent distinguishes Purvis on its facts:
“[T]he police conduct in Purvis differed materially from the conduct in the present case. In Purvis, the defendant apparently casually discarded the evidence and left it exposed to anybody who happened to be in the room. The garbage in the present case, in contrast, was placed in a closed container with the expectation that it would remain obscured until it was commingled with other garbage and therefore not easily retrieved and identifiable.”
Id. at 455 (Schuman, J., dissenting).
Assuming, for the sake of argument, that those factual distinctions are accurate,3 they are beside the point. As we recently explained in a different context, “[o]ur task is not to await the Supreme Court’s treatment of other particular factual situations, but to apply the Supreme Court’s reasoning to such situations as they arise and to the extent that they do not involve significant distinctions.” Olsen v. Deschutes County, 204 Or App 7, 20, 127 P3d 655 (2006). Here, none of the facts that the dissent highlights was a factor in the court’s reasoning in Purvis. Rather, as we have already explained, the court’s reasoning was that a person has no privacy interest in items that are “destined to be thrown away” and that the person has “impliedly authorized to be hauled away,” and “certainly” that is so once those items have been collected by the *446person authorized to collect them. Purvis, 249 Or at 410-11. Given that rationale, the distinctions on which the dissent relies are irrelevant.
The dissent’s second reason for departing from Purvis’s holding is that, in its view, Purvis is “clearly a Fourth Amendment case[.]” 204 Or App at 455 (Schuman, J., dissenting). The dissent apparently considers Purvis not to be authoritative because the Supreme Court did not follow the independent state constitutional analysis that it has followed in other search and seizure contexts in the years since Purvis was decided. Id. at 455-56 (Schuman, J., dissenting).
With respect, we disagree that we are free to ignore Purvis on that theory. Purvis was explicitly decided under Article I, section 9. The Supreme Court is free to adopt a federal constitutional analysis as the analysis that it uses to interpret a parallel provision in our state constitution if it so chooses, and it sometimes does. See, e.g., Eugene Sand & Gravel v. City of Eugene, 276 Or 1007, 1013, 558 P2d 338 (1976), cert den, 434 US 876 (1977) (adopting federal test for establishment of religion as the appropriate test to be used under the state constitution as well). Since deciding Purvis, the Supreme Court has not overruled it or, for that matter, even disavowed it. To the contrary, in Cook, 332 Or at 606, the Supreme Court cited Purvis as one of several cases resolved under Article I, section 9. The court then drew guidance from Purvis, along with the other cases it cited, to determine the circumstances in which a defendant will be deemed to have relinquished his or her constitutionally protected interest in an article of property. In short, Purvis is factually on point, it was decided under Article I, section 9, and it remains authoritative. If Purvis is to be revisited, the Supreme Court must do the revisiting.
Finally, worth observing is that the dissent’s reliance on later Supreme Court precedent does not aid it. Drawing from State v. Campbell, 306 Or 157, 171, 759 P2d 1040 (1988), the dissent would declare categorically that a person has a privacy interest in his or her garbage after it has been collected by someone authorized to take it and dispose of it, because examining a person’s garbage so offends the dissent’s perception of collective sensibilities about the public’s *447interest in freedom from government scrutiny. See 204 Or App at 450-53 (Schuman, J., dissenting). Campbell, however, did not announce a one-size-fits-all test for privacy interests protected under Article I, section 9. As the Supreme Court has cautioned, cases decided both before and after Campbell have assessed the existence of a protected privacy interest “in light of the particular context in which the government conduct occurred.” State v. Meredith, 337 Or 299, 306, 96 P3d 342 (2004).
The context here is meaningfully distinct from Campbell, which involved a radio transmitter mounted surreptitiously and without consent on the bumper of a private car so that police could track the car’s whereabouts. In other words, Campbell involved both (1) a search through technological enhancement and (2) an unlawful physical invasion in the form of an actual trespass to property. This case, in contrast, involves garbage that defendants turned over to the dominion and control of a sanitation company. That sanitation company, in turn, voluntarily permitted police to search the garbage after it was within the sanitation company’s possession. Police committed no trespass nor did their search depend on technological enhancement to invade what otherwise would have been private space. See Meredith, 337 Or at 306 (distinguishing Campbell because it involved a clear form of unlawful invasion — a physical trespass); State v. Smith, 327 Or 366, 373 n 5, 963 P2d 642 (1998) (same); State v. Ainsworth, 310 Or 613, 618 n 5, 801 P2d 749 (1990) OCampbell and other cases concerned with technological enhancement were not relevant to the analysis of what police may examine from a lawful vantage point).4
The post -Purvis case that most informs the analysis of defendants’ protected privacy interest in this context is State v. Tanner, 304 Or 312, 745 P2d 757 (1987). In Tanner, the defendant entrusted certain effects to a third party under *448circumstances in which the defendant could reclaim the effects. Police then searched the third party’s home unlawfully. The court held that “the entrustment of an effect to another is sufficient to establish a privacy interest that is violated when the effect is discovered through an unlawful search.” 304 Or at 323 (emphasis added). The court emphasized that, if the third party were to have allowed police access to where the entrusted effects were kept and had permitted police to discover them, then the defendant’s interests would not be violated, not because the defendant lacked a privacy interest against the government, but because the third party lawfully controlled access to the effects. Id. at 322. The court also observed that, if the “defendant had sold or given away the effects, that might have been a sufficient basis for concluding that defendant no longer had a privacy interest that could be violated by the discovery of the effects.” Id. at 323.
Both facts that the court in Tanner held would or might defeat the defendant’s protected privacy interest are present in this case. Here, defendants did not entrust the garbage to the sanitation company under circumstances in which they might reclaim it. It was, after all, garbage; they wanted to be rid of it permanently. The sanitation company hauled it away on those terms. As importantly, defendants turned the garbage over to the sanitation company unconditionally. Under Tanner, even if defendants retained some privacy interest in the garbage itself or in the place where it was transported or stored, defendant’s protected privacy interest was not violated if police obtained access to the garbage with the permission of the sanitation company — that is, lawfully vis-a-vis the person or entity that possessed it. Even apart from the holding in Purvis, which is controlling, Tanner would dictate that no protected privacy interest of defendants was invaded when police searched the garbage with the consent of the sanitation company that collected it in the ordinary course and that exercised possessory control over it. See State v. Dowdy, 117 Or App 414, 419, 844 P2d 263 (1992) (under Tanner, the defendant’s privacy interests in his personal effects in hotel room were not invaded because police *449searched hotel room with consent of hotel manager, who had common authority to permit access to the room).5
In sum, under Galloway, defendants had no posses-sory interest in the garbage once it was collected by the sanitation company. Under Purvis, they had no privacy interest at that point either. And under cases decided since Purvis, the search by police did not invade any protected privacy or possessory interest retained by defendants because the sanitation company, which had possessory control over the garbage, chose to give police access to it. We conclude, therefore, that the warrantless searches of the relinquished garbage were not unreasonable under Article I, section 9, of the Oregon Constitution. The trial court properly denied defendants’ motion to suppress.
Affirmed.
Article I, section 9, of the Oregon Constitution provides:
“No law shall violate the right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable search, or seizure; and no warrant shall issue but upon probable cause, supported by oath, or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the person or thing to be seized.”
The dissent points out that this part of our decision in Galloway was dictum. 204 Or App at 454-55 (Sahúman, J., dissenting). We agree. Although it was dictum in Galloway, we now adopt it as part of our holding in this case. Significantly, the dissent does not take issue with the correctness of the observation in Galloway and our holding that, after garbage is collected in the ordinary course by a company authorized to haul it away and dispose of it, the individual who left it for collection retains no possessory interest in it.
They are not necessarily accurate, especially when the record is viewed in the light most favorable to the state, as it must be. For example, although defendants sometimes packaged their garbage in closed opaque bags, they also sometimes put it in open paper bags. In that form, defendants’ garbage would have been exposed to the sanitation collector’s view as it was dumped out of defendants’ curbside can. Also, although defendants stated that they did not expect anyone to go through their garbage, they had no specific contractually based expectation about how their garbage would be handled or disposed of. When defendant Howard — who contracted with the sanitation company for garbage collection — was asked where the garbage “goes particularly,” she answered that she did not know. She said only that she believed it goes to “dump sites” and to where “everybody else’s garbage is going.” She expressly acknowledged that she did not care where the garbage goes; she just wanted someone to come and take it away so that it would be gone. Defendant Dawson — who did not have a contractual relationship with the sanitation company — specifically acknowledged that he had no control over what the sanitation company did with the garbage after collecting it. Of significance, neither defendant Howard nor defendant Dawson considered the garbage to still be theirs once it was collected by the sanitation company. Nor did they believe that they could recover anything they disposed of from the sanitation company.
The dissent misunderstands our point in citing these cases. See 204 Or App at 451 n 4 (Schuman, J., dissenting). Our point is not that the Supreme Court has strictly limited Campbell to contexts involving technological enhancement or a physical trespass. Our point is, instead, that the Supreme Court has declared that context is important in determining the existence of a protected privacy interest, see Meredith, 337 Or at 306, and the court has more often distinguished Campbell than it has extended it, as the representative cases we cite reveal.
The dissent discounts Tanner because it was decided one year before Campbell and because its analysis entailed — to quote the dissent’s words “musings about hypothetical situations.” 204 Or App at 451 n 4 (Schuman, J., dissenting). But Tanner is hardly a dead letter. Cases from our court and the Supreme Court alike that rely on Tanner and aspects of its analysis that the dissent considers mere “musings” are too numerous for citation. Dowdy is one such case and is on point. Moreover, the principle that we derive from Tanner is neither novel nor unique to Tanner. It is a recognition, in a different context, of the settled legal principle that a person who exercises joint possession and control over a space and the effects in it may validly permit police to enter that space and discover those effects, even though other individuals also have possessory and privacy interests in the same space and effects. See, e.g., State v. Weaver, 319 Or 212, 219, 874 P2d 1322 (1994) (consent exception to the warrant requirement applies if someone with authority to do so voluntarily gave police consent to search and police complied with any limitations on the scope of the consent).
