GRRRR Trash Rant

[emjacobs]

Our trash gets picked up on Thursdays, so the can needs to go out Wednesday night.  Well Wednesday was really busy for T and we didn't get home til 10.30 and then Thursday was really busy for me.  I just realized that CRAP it's Friday and the trash didn't get put out.  And the can is FULL full so I'm now out of room to put trash. 

Totally a first world problem but I really wanted to clean out my fridge.

My H has done this a few times. We have a second can for this very reason. Well, we had a second can we bought at the old house, the other one is a can from another company. We picked a different company than the ones the old owners used and we never had it picked up. Our company we use will still pick up trash out of it!

You are lucky, we can't put the cans out the night before or the bears will get into them

I just have to worry about racoons, but our can stays outside all the time. 

We don't have a second can that we are "allowed" to put out, so we can fill it but we will just have to transfer it to the big one for the next week. We can fit 2 weeks of trash into the big can, so it's not a huge problem if we forget a week, we just also happened to forget last week.

Do you have a dump/landfill you can take them too?

It's a 45minute drive and not open for the next three days.
