It takes me over a month to fill my trash can. Even then it is never full of anything that would cause smelling.

But I have to pay for the trash to be picked up every week. So I drag my trash can (which is only full to my ankles or so) down to the curb and pay my bill. Seems so wasteful.

But the alternative is taking it to the dump for $25. Which wouldn't be bad if I had a pick up truck. I don't want to haul my trash in my car.

We don't go through much either. Maybe one 13 gallon trash bag a week. I'm not sure I would think about giving up my trash and recycling service though.

How much does trash pickup cost? In Austin, you can get a smaller trash bin to reduce your bill. Don't know if that's available in St. Louis.

We also only fill it up to be taken out once or twice a month... we just take it out once or twice a month...

Just throw your trash in your neighbor's yard.

excellent idea!

If you lived near me you could just throw it on the ground next to the dumpster.
