We moved to a town with no municipal trash pickup. There are three private companies I can use. I pay $40/mo for one barrel of trash, and one of recycling every two weeks. Instead of one truck picking up trash on a route, there are at least three trucks picking up trash and driving through our neighborhood. In this instance, each of us negotiating independently with the vendor, and having 3x the traffic, doesn't make sense to me.
