I had a good laugh with the lady at the trash collection company as she tried to explain why here you need to BUY paper bags, addinf to the trash volume, cutting down trees etc to be able to get rid of your garden waste.

LOGIC?

Oh and they insist that you purchase both black and clear bags adding those to the trash volume so that the trucks will take it.

The paper bags identify the yard waste and ensure that it goes into the correct truck.
