AspieAlly613 Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Before I got the cat, that meant that local mice would get in and engorge themselves on my trash. Link to post Share on other sites

RoseGoesToYale Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 I live in an apartment, so technically not my problem. The trucks seem to come for the dumpsters either monday or tuesday. Link to post Share on other sites

firewallflower Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Every Tuesday morning (except when the schedule is changed for holidays) garbage and recycling is collected in my neighborhood, as well as compost in the warm months. It's my job to get the carts down to the curb for pickup (I do this Monday nights), which is fine at this time of year, but not so easy when there's a foot of snow on the ground.

Guest Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 Different days of the week. Plastic/Recyc ("yellow trash") is every other Tuesday; Paper ("blue trash") once a month (on Wednesdays... I think? I rarely bother with that as I tend to just collect paper & cardboard in a box to dump off at the landfill every other months or so); all remaining stuff ("gray trash") is weekly on Fridays... but I can go months without putting the bin out because 95+% of my trash is plastic or paper anyway.

Grumpy Alien Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 I don’t know in my hometown because it changes a lot. At my UK house, it’s Mondays. Alternating weeks for landfill/recycling. Link to post Share on other sites

SithLord Posted September 12, 2019 Share Posted September 12, 2019 There are different days for when I take out the trash or recycling. According to my notes, trash is collected on Tuesday and Friday mornings (I always take it out Monday night) and recycling is collected on Wednesday (I can take it out whenever, that's just when it's collected).

My parents are way out in the countryside and still have a garbage day. 15 miles to town. 5 miles to nearest store of any kind (the sodas and chips only kind). 50 miles round trip each day for work. Edit: And our road isnt even paved... Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 I thought this topic would be about hitting the streets on trash nights in search of useful, repairable items. It stands to reason though as I've been scavenging and tinkering for most of my life. Most of my treasures come from online freebie ads these days; not much quality stuff hits the curb anymore. However, my freezer was a curb find, got it just over a year ago. It's charged with R12 so it keeps things plenty cold even with the temperature dial at about half. Link to post Share on other sites
Goonie Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Thursday anywhere between 6 am and 8 pm. Recycle is also thursday every other week Link to post Share on other sites

Dreamer23 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Huh, apparently Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for trash, Monday and Thursday for recyclables, and Wednesday for food and yard waste. I didn't know any of that! Link to post Share on other sites
Larkaloke Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Both the trash and the recycling bin are collected every other Tuesday where I live. Link to post Share on other sites
Gloomy Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Not my problem since I live in an apartment complex that has a dumpster. I’m not sure which day(s) the garbage truck comes to collect it to be honest. Link to post Share on other sites
J. van Deijck Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 this question is hard to answer for me 😀 here where I live, we only leave our garbage bags outside the house, just on the street next to our front door, then the proper people come and pick them up. we have it scheduled for every two weeks, but the day is different for each type of garbage (yeah, we have to keep them sorted). so Mondays are for organic waste (we call it restafval), and Thursdays are for plastic and paper. some other places have also a day for glass, for example, but we get rid of glass ourselves.

anzu2snow Posted September 22, 2019 Share Posted September 22, 2019 Garbage day is every Monday morning for us. Recycling bins are out every other Monday. Link to post Share on other sites
Joel. Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 I have 4 different bin's; plastic, paper, food and garden trash, and other trash (except glass, I need to bring that to the end of the street) so multiple times a week it is. most bins will be collected once every 2 week's but in the winter some are collected once every 3 week's (I'm happy I get an email from the trash collecting company a day before they come to collect it) Link to post Share on other sites
