to me paying to opt out would be administratively complex for the city.
out of curiousity, why would you want to pay to opt out of the program. do you not like recycling stuff. would you like to see the city buy more landfills?

Assess the full externalities of all of the costs (methane emissions, capital land fill costs, etc) then give me a price not to do it so I can gladly pay it. For the Blue Bins it would be cheaper not to do it. The green bins might make sense but again how much do I have to pay not to do it should be an option.
If everytime we add a bin our costs go up, something is wrong, either we weren't paying enough for garbage disposal in which case our fees should have been higher previously or this is a bad idea.
