There's been a couple of times I have 8 bags plus a couple of garbage pails full of junk; and I wondered if I would be better off giving the garbage men the $10 instead of loading up the truck.

This is why I should be tipping my Garbage men. I often bag up the reno junk from my house in contractor bags. Sometimes they are a little heavy, or numerous, but they take them pretty much every time. I've literally saved hundreds because of those guys.
I've left a few very light bags at small jobs in Mount Royal, and those guys turned their noses up at the site of contractor bags. Moral of the story...Rich people should be making dump runs, I guess.
I will look into a gift card for the dude in the New Year.
