The trash guys haven't ever complained. But we put the big bag in the garbage can, and tie the bag, and the trash guy can just tip the can over the back of his truck and the bag slides right out, sealed and tidy.
In my area the trash can would be thrown out too. These trucks are not automated for them as they are up north.
