The problem with having the city pick things like your trash pickup is that you end up bound to whatever choices they make.
In Canada for instance, I’ve seen towns where they have pick up once every two weeks and the canister is not even a full size one. It’s a “gentle” push to get people to recycle and compost.
No way that would fly in Freedom Town USA.
This worked in Australia. People complained for like a month, and then just started using the food scraps bin and got over it.
Miracle is garbage doesn’t stink if you don’t put food in it.
My current US city has municipal trash. My previous US city had municipal trash. It definitely “flies” here.
