Mine's Wednesday, but apparently we didn't pay our bill so they didn't take it Wednesday, so my mom called and we paid the bill a week before they just "forgot" to mark it.

You don't have a certain day where someone comes by and picks it up and takes it away?

Our regular trash day is Wednesday. They pick up around 12:30 pm. If a holiday falls on Monday, they pick up on Thursday afternoon sometime.

You don't have a day when all the garbage has to be out so someone can come by and take it away?

Ours is on Thursday, of course whenever I am given the responsibility of taking the trash out, I always forget! Lol this is why my parents do it all the time. And when is your trash day? You didn't tell us! Lol.

I don't have a special trash day. I usually throw the trash when the trash bag is full or a little bit smelly. I don't have much trash every day though.
I am also wondering maybe you are referring to a special Trash Day in the responders' country? Well, I have no idea about whether we have a trash day or not.

Thanks for your explanation that makes me understand the trash day. Yes, every day the trash collector comes to our campus to take away all the trash from the trash can.

Ours gets picked up on Wednesday. We have to have it in trash bags that are completely closed and then inside a trash container. We used to be able to leave it in the trash bags out by the curb, but now it has to be in a trash container or they won't pick it up. We are only allowed 3 containers a week. And, they can fine us if we set out more then 3 or if we leave a bag not inside the container. Even the men who pick it up don't like the new rules, they said people are cramming to much inside the containers making them heavy. They liked it better when the trash bags could be set by the curb and they could pick them up and not mess with the trash containers.

That's the problem in our place right now! The authorities don't know where to put the garbage, that they made a dumpsite near our place and along the bay. It really stinks here. The newly elected mayor has promised to deal with it, but the dumpsite area seems to grow. I really this kind of politicians. Now there's a barangay election on Monday, I wonder how they will deal with this problem in our locale.
