Sometimes I’ll take them down the night before, if I acknowledge the reminder I have set on my phone. Taking them down the night before is nice because then it’s already done the morning of.

    My neighbor seems to be watching for the trash people to stop by to bring his can back in. Sometimes he is literally waiting at the curb while they empty it. For some reason this feels like it is target at me for bringing my cans in a day late.

    I’m lucky in this respect. We keep the bins right by the alley, so I basically never have to move them.

    I’m lucky, the bin man has to reverse down my street first, so I get a nice little 5 minute warning.

    Nice. I got mine and my neighbors out just as the truck came around the corner. I waited inside for him to finish so as not to be weird about it and then brought them back up.

    My trash bins get picked up at 7am at the latest, which is usually when I wake up. So if I don’t do it the night before, it doesn’t get done

      You must be very early in the route. Our trash bins say that they must be at the curb by 07:00, but they get picked up more commonly at like 09:00

      Mine get picked up between 6am and 9am. Not by rule, just seems that’s how these guys roll.

      So night before it is.
