As others have so intelligently pointed out, exactly what real 'trash/garbage' do people have to get rid of when checking their mail...unless maybe it's dog poop?


I don't have a dog. I put chewing gum in the trash/garbage (the word we use is geographic) Our Helene picks up the mail and brings every bit of it home so none of this personally affects me or our household. It just seems silly to remove a trash/garbage can from a place where people would put their trash/garbage. P.S. I think of garbage as apple peels and meat bones and coffee grounds. I think of trash as paper and plastic and cans. Perhaps we need a can for dog poop and a can for trash?
