[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1177934, member: 18945"] I don't have trash pickup either. What do you do with your plastic trash? I have stopped burning it in my burn barrel because most of it doesn't burn at all--it just melts into an unrecognizable glob of hard stuff in the bottom. I do have the option of sorting the stuff out, and hauling bags of household trash to what they call the county compactor, which is a pickup point for a big trash bin. It has a hyd press built into it and the truck just comes once or twice a week and picks the compacted trash bin up and drops off an empty one but dang, it's a pita to keep it all bagged up (and stinking) till you get enough bags to make it worth the time and $$ to haul it the 12 miles to the compactor. Cost breaks down to $2/bag plus fuel and time to haul it over there and they don't take any wood, empty aerosol cans, non-biodegradables, batteries or metal. One night in a full moon, my dogs barked 1/2 the night. Couldn't figure out what they were barking at till I finally spotlighted a walmart bag flapping in the breeze in the top of a tree. The Arkansas state flower. [/QUOTE]
