Unfortunately, our city does not recycle, so we have one container of
garbage each garbage day, and they take up to 15 containers or bags of
garbage each garbage day. They take large pieces on Friday, such as
furniture, appliances.

When we lived in a city that did recycle, we had very little garbage,
because the city recycled almost everything. We also composted, so we
would have maybe a gallon of garbage that contained bones, chewing gum,
light bulbs, batteries and coated cardboard.
