We have to buy our own bins, which suits me. I have a couple
of Rubbermaid Brutes I can switch off if one gets full.

A couple of years ago, my town switched to picking up every
recyclable twice a month. Whoever arranged that deserves a
bonus. Before that they picked up newspapers/cardboard/mixed
paper once a month and cans/bottles a different day, once a
month. You always had a collection of crap piling up somewhere.

Of course, I could drive stuff over to the yard and drop it
off myself, which I often did. It's pretty far as I live in a
large town. Unless I had business in the area, hard to justify
burning gas in the name of recycling.
