Just tossed a wrapper from a sandwich out the window into the bin to keep the dog from eating the plastic which he would do if I put it in the garbage in the kitchen

I now am setting my goals high, when it comes to the trash, want to have my bin filled at least for 75%. Usually, it would last me for two months, where my back neighbours have two bins, and that is not enough to last them for two weeks.
Where I live now, we do not separate that much, for recycling. We've got a green bin, for all that is decomposable, then there is separate collecting of glass and paper and plastic. There is direct recycling, that goes to the thrift shop, they take all electrical appliances too. And, then there are the remnants.
Where I lived before, cans were collected separately too, and the place I lived before that, there was a even a special option for aluminum caps and wrappings.

I should be collecting all my empty glass, and bring it to the glass bin.
Alas, they are underground containers now. The sound of breaking glass was really rewarding when they were above ground.

Semi, you'll be happy to know that I did not forget to put my plastic waste by the road this morning. I had forgotten to do that two or three times in a row, so, I had three bags. Then I suddenly saw the amount of plastic plant containers I had collected over time, and decided to fill a fourth bag with a lot of stacked pots too. So, four bags waiting to be taken away.

The asshole at the recycling place takes more than half the money when my money trades her recyclables to him. When the owner is there, she gets a lot more money. Theif. She is going to tell her when she is back from her vacation. She refuses to turn in anymore stuff unless she is the one doing it.

Yes if it is recyclable. It is better to smash the cans and bottles to make more room.

Wish there was somewhere to haul the plastic and glass around here, especially the plastic.  :zombiefuck:  But there isn't, not local anyways...and we don't have curbside recycling here...in the next town over, not here.

Basically with trash I ask myself these questions as I am cruising the curbs before pickup...can I use it, can I scrap it, can I sell it, can I sell parts off of it?

I just put out the trash and recycling.  In Connecticut there is a five cent deposit on all water, carbonated beverages, and beer  so no smashing cans and bottles  here we turn them back in.  When I was very young the scrap yard bought newspaper and rags, I remember going in the station wagon loaded with newspapers with my mother and my brother.  I seem to remember that there was a place to take the glass also but we never did.

We have a 25 ct deposit on most big plastic beverage bottles here, and a deposit on some beer-bottles and crates. There are ideas to stop that though. Don't think that it is smart to stop that, now lots of plastic is being brought back, also because kids like to earn some money, when doing that.

According to Wikipedia, that deposit stops next year. :hyke:

Some US states charge five or ten cent deposit, but it's uncommon.

I think they have two people per truck still. Just in case something goes wrong or something. Something like putting stickers on the recycle bins for being a good recycler. I got one on my bin and it's still there.

Wheeled 3 bags out in the little wagon I trash picked last fall.

  So someone else's trash has now become ... the trash conveyor!  :orly:

Just noticed the date on that post...3 years later and I'm still using that little Lil' tikes wagon to haul out the trash. I've even hauled bricks and cinder blocks in that damn thing :o

Lil' tikes needs to branch out and make some big garden carts, those damn things never last.

Knew someone who sold that stuff at housesale parties. She'd stand on it, pregnant with twins and more, to show how strong the toys were.

Before the new trucks showed up around here, there used to be two workers, one driving and one in the back, so just assumed the new trucks put half the sanitation workers out of jobs.
I think they have two people per truck still. Just in case something goes wrong or something. Something like putting stickers on the recycle bins for being a good recycler. I got one on my bin and it's still there.
Not really sure if there's two people or one; will have to ask husband.

When you throw the trash out, (A mans job) let us know here!

I just. threw the trash out! :blonde:

Should put the green bin at the curb. Still haven't found a man to do it. Have not actively been looking for a trash throwing male. So my own fault that it's still my chore.

  Just hauled out a BIG heavy bag of trash.  No recycling this week, too little in the bin to justify
  making an extra trip downstairs.  But I did get rid of a nuisance in my hallway.  I don't even know
  what it is, looks like it might be a door of some kind, there are three hingelike things on one side. 
  It's like a big-ass surfboard with hinges.  Anyway, it's been leaned against the wall right outside
  my front door for over two years and it had to go, so I hauled it through my apartment,
  down the stairs to the laundry room, and laid it on the floor, hinges up.  No harm, no foul. 
  The landlord won't care.  The laundry room is a dumping ground anyway.  :zoinks:

That is the life saving surfing board the Lord has sent to save you from the biblical flood.  Better pray for a drought.

My red lidded general waste bin was put out on the kerb earlier, after I filled it with another 3 bags.

We have alternating weeks for our bins here, ie. recycling one week and general waste the next. The greenwaste/compostable stuff gets collected every week though.

My neighbours LOVE the smell of my bags of soiled kitty litter :zoinks:. And it just occurred to me why they always move my bin into the furthermost corner of the bin storage area :P. It was strange how it only started happening once I put padlocks on my bins though.

  Kitty litter is heavy!  In my previous home, where my landlady had seven cats,
   I used to haul the trash bag to the curb every Thursday morning, and I had to stop every few steps.  :zombiefuck:
