Time to take out the trash.

So to speak.

I've been lazy about the trash and just toss it off the porch. If it makes it into the can cool, if not than the garbage guy will pick it up.

The garbage people are cool here. In TN and GA you had to pull your cans to the end of your driveway and if you didn't you didn't get your trash picked up. Here you can totally leave it by your garage and they'll come and get it for you

In California you need to have it out along the sidewalk cuz we have the automated trucks with the mechanical arm that dump into the top.

Apartment living we have to go take our stuff out to the communal dumpster, where again, we have automated trucks with a mechanical arm (but in the front cuz it's dumpsters and not individual cans).

We're having a discussion about garbage! biggrin

That's interested with the automated trucks. Do you guys have a limit on the number of bags you can put out a week or no?

I know in Kansas City you can only have a certain number of bags. They do this to encourage people to recycle.

Sort of. They have like, trash cans]trash cans(kind of like the ones pictured in the link). The trucks pick up the whole can and dump the contents into the back. The limit would basically be however many you can fit into the trash can.

Yeah, and depending on how much you pay for your trash service you get either a small, medium or large can. The one wolf shared is like the medium size.

Also depending on county, you may have up to three different colored cans. When I was living in Brentwood, we had a blue recyclables, a green "garden waste", and a black all-other-garbage. Out in Patterson my parents only have one single can for everything.

Our current apartment set-up has both a recyclable dumpster and an all-other dumpster.

I miss the south. We just threw all our s**t in one big black can.
