Angry Trash Cans are a No-No!

No, Peglet. You cannot use a trash can in The Villages. If you do, they will simply trash your trash can! The rule is that your trash must be bagged. They say in black bags but I always used Walmart bags and that was not a problem. We never had much trash but if we did, we used more than one bag.
