Our trash rates increased because of recycling. Will our trash rates increase to end recycling?

That will depend on the charges from the landfills to take all our stuff.

We are sending a second fleet of trucks around The Villsges every week. How environmentally friendly and cost effective is that? If it’s going to the landfill as I have heard, it is absurd.

Quite frankly I don't like the can idea either. Just put it out there because an earlier poster asked about the cans. Don't have the room to store them in the garage and would look crappy sitting in the yard as they are quite large.

You don't have room to store one big garbage can in the garage. So where do you store all the different trash bags filled with trash? Kitchen, bathroom, other bathroom, the bag you use to clean the litterbox, lint from the dryer, etc. etc. etc.

All those individual trash cans you mentioned get emptied twice a week into a large trash bag which is contained in a kitchen size garbage can in the garage. No need for storing this trash in the house unless you consider each individual trash receptacle as being storage. Those trash receptacles are being used on a daily basis. They do not need emptying until trash day when they go out to the end of the driveway.

The never ending garbage topic. Back on topic if there's no demand for recycled item they get thrown in the regular trash.

With two trash pickups per week, we've never had to store trash in the garage. To people advocating garbage going into disposals, I say what about meat bones, lettuce leaves, peelings and other things that aren't supposed to go down the disposal? Even coffee grounds and egg shells are not recommended to be put into disposals. You can't just throw those items into a bagless bin. And you can't compost bones.

I thought my question was pretty clear but perhaps not. Especially considering the litterbox issue, where I clean the solid and clumps every single day. They get cleaned into a plastic bag, and that bag gets put in the garbage can, which we keep outside in our back yard up north until trash day. Kitchen waste goes in the kitchen trash bin - until that bag is full. Then we empty it out and put THAT in the garbage can out back, until trash day. Bathroom trash goes in the bathroom trash bin, until THAT bag is full. And then it goes in the garbage can out back, until trash day. Where do people who claim they don't have room for a single trash can, put those bags of trash when their multiple trash bins in the rooms of their house are full, on days when it isn't trash day that or the following day? |

I have never, in 8 years, had to store trash in the garage to wait for trash day. We just don't generate that much trash. As I said in an earlier post, we truly had NO room for a garbage can in our puny designer garage. Now that we're in a CYV with only one car in the garage, we could have one, as long as we don't have a golf cart. But... we don't need a garbage can. The dog's déjections are bagged and go into a "poop jar" outside (which is where I would put cat litter if we had a cat) to be added to the garbage bag on trash days.
If they drop down to one trash pickup per week, we would have one bag, tall kitchen can size, in the garage till trash day. But I hope they don't, because garages are hot and I would hate to have garbage festering in there. As for recyclables, we put ours in the laundry room sink until pickup day. If they stop accepting recycling, either at the curb or at the designated facility, that bag will be added to the trash. Up north we had cans blowing all over the road. It was unsightly. I like the way TV does it.

I do my part and put the trash out on trash day, how ever they pick it up and what they do with it is their business. I pay for service and they do good job. The problem with trash cans is they blow over, people throw anything in them, and some Lazy _____ won’t bring the back off the street. If some Think they can do it better create company and put in bid
