... a little more on garbage collection. In my neighborhood bags of garbage are picked up on Monday. Recyclables are also picked up the same day. Recyclables have to be in a clear plastic bag. Larger items such as broken down cardboard boxes can be placed under the clear plastic bag. If it isn't obviously recyclable, it'll be taken as garbage. I've never seen anything left at the curb. It wouldn't be neat!
On Wednesdays in my neighborhood, you can put out lawn, tree and scrub stuff. If it's hard to handle stuff such as trimmings you'll use large double or triple thick paper bags that you can buy at Walmart, Lowes, Sams Club, Home Depot, etc. Larger stuff is left at the end of the driveway.
On Thursdays they do garbage again.
Cost: $16.92 a month
