A trashy question About This Page:

[Tara O'Hara]

We all take it out here. It goes out twice week- Tuesdays and Fridays.

[CRCrazy]

Around here - occasionally John will take it out, but usually it is either Amanda or I - whoever notices it first! Pickup is on Tuesday mornings - and Amanda or I (usually Amanda) will drag the big outdoor cans down to the road.

Jennie has an amazing blind spot for a full trash can! What trash can?

[Jennifer2003]

DH takes it out every Wednesday morning

[Colexis Mom]

DH takes it out, and we usually go thru a tall kitchen bag a day as well

[graygables]

Trash has always been a "boy" job at my house (even when I was a kid, I rarely had to do the trash ) DH doesn't "get it", so I sometimes have to set the full bag out the back door for him to trip over He carries it to the barn, then out to the curb once a week (if I'm lucky and he remembers!) Now that 16yo is gone, we're only emptying it every other day instead of every day! Also, I vermicompost (worms in a bin), so a lot of our trash goes there.

DS takes care of the garbage. It goes out once a week. Usually the garbage can in the kitchen needs to be emptied every day, but it's just a small bag. We usually only have one trashcan sized bag every week because our 2 recycling bins are heaped full and our composting pail needs to be emptied into the compost bin every week.

Usually Gabe or Jay. Tuesday is trash day.

[Tink and co.]

DS is responsible for bathroom trash once a week, and whoever rinses the dishes takes out the kitchen trash if its full, usually every other day or so. On trash day (wed.) the girls put out the recycling bins and dad puts out the big green dumpster. Apparently we have a trash routine! I never thought about it before!

[MELLAMOUSE]

DH puts it on the curb on Tues/Fri mornings if we have a full bag to go out. Since its just the 2 of us we usually only have 1 big bag a week. All of our trash cans are small enough that we use grocery or Walmart bags for trash bags, even in the kitchen. That way they are emptied more often and we have fewer incidents of "garbage smells" in the house than if we used a large kitchen can. Especially since DH has a tendency to let things overflow before he notices that they need to be emptied.

DH put's ours out on a Sunday night, for collection around 7am on Monday morning. We normally have around 3-4 quite big black bags.

[LizardCop]

Trash is emptied into the big outside can whenever it's needed. I usually roll the big can to the curb every Monday and Thursday...

[AmyJune]

I think I'm the only one that has to put my trash in my vehicle and take it to the dump! DH does it mostly because he has off during the week.

[greystone98]

DH will empty the kitchen trash a couple of times a week and I'll roll the trash container to the street, then DS pulls it back up when he gets home from school.

[WDWJim081963]

Once a week, on Friday. Whenever I change the cat litter (usually when the smell gets too bad, about every third day) I close up the bag and put it in the trashcan just outside. Friday, I take the can to the curb.

DFiance takes out the trash every night.. or he's gonna do it in the morning before work. I've finally convinced him that it's better to just get it over with.
