I haven't had a plastic garbage bag leak yet in the seven years I've been putting trash out. There may have been three nights when I kept cardboard or paper lawn bags in the garage out of concern over rain. The current process seems to work very well.
The biggest problem with cans is bringing them back in. By 6:45 when the trash truck leaves my neighborhood there is nothing left along the street. That wouldn't be the case if we used cans, there would be cans and lids at the end of driveways or blowing down the road all day. Much, much better the way it is now.
