We have always had a garbage can to put out trash before we moved to The Villages. Having said that, I would put the trash in a plastic bag THEN put the plastic bag in the garbage can. In fact...... Here in The Villages, I have a clear plastic bag lining my garbage can in the kitchen. Then I put the clear plastic bag inside the black plastic bag to put out on garbage day.
I have always thought all these plastic bags which are used to put out trash ARE RECYCLED by the trash company. I sincerely doubt all these plastic bags are sitting in landfills. That just doesn't make sense to me.
