I like the program though. Before I lived in a townhouse and we only had garbage bins. No recycle or compost. Now I actually feel the satisfaction of recycling/helping the environment and it feels pretty good.

We're a family of 3-5 and even we arent anywhere close to filling that bin on a weekly basis.
No yard work is a good point, I mean, I dont have a huge yard but I'd have a couple big bags every week. I really think we should be picking up garbage every week and the compost every 2 weeks during the winter and then reverse it during the spring/summer.
