Having your trash out before the truck passes your house
Chances are you’ve experienced that sinking feeling when you hear the garbage truck approaching even though your bags or bins aren’t curbside. It doesn’t matter whether or not your trash day is the same day each week. We all forget from time to time.
Yet, those times only happen when you’re already in a rush, you’re dressed up for work and it is raining, snowing or gusting outside.
And why is it that those times you forget tend to coincide with when your bins are full to the brim (e.g., the first pick-up day following Christmas or spring cleaning)? Or worse yet, the height of fruit fly season and the stickiest, humid (translation: SMELLY) days of the year. There’s absolutely no room for you to add in the castoffs you’ll collect for the next week or two when the truck is scheduled to visit again.
As frustrating as it can be to miss out on the garbage, compost or recycling collectors, there’s much satisfaction in knowing that all is well.
Hearing the clatter of those big trucks approaching your driveway and knowing your accumulated stuff is waiting patiently near the curb instead of sprawled about the house, well that’s
AWESOME!
