I'd say give using none at all try if it works within your location. We haven't bought any trash bags in close to 4 years.
We split our garbage into compost, recycling, paper, glass, and others.
- FreshStart 3y agoFree work needs to be subsidized. How much time does it cost you to sort what they dump&burn together anyway?
- Kerb_ 3y agoHow much do you suppose you need to be paid for picking up the spoon and putting it in your mouth? Taking out the trash should be basic self maintenance
- mschild 3y agoNone? It takes me not even a second to decide what bin to put it into. Compost goes to a compost facility that generates methane from it and then sells the excess as fertilizer. Plastics get recycled. Reusable glass bottles get cleaned and reused, other molten down and reused. Other gets burned, filtered, and generates electricity.

- crazygringo 3y agoSo how do you leave the "others" for garbage collection if you're not using bags?
- mschild 3y agoGoes into a big outside bin that get emptied from the trash company.
- crazygringo 3y agoAh, lucky you then. Where I live, everything non-recyclable won't get picked up if it's not put out in garbage bags cinched tight.
- nucleardog 3y agoThey’ll stop picking up the trash here if it’s not bagged in the bin. When they raise it and turn it upside down to empty it, the wind can easily cause any loose and light stuff to blow around and not end up in the truck. One bin probably is a small thing, but I can definitely imagine if the entire block were doing it it would start to accumulate fairly quickly.
