Signal the Trash Has Been Picked Up

When I bring my trash container to the curb I pull one of the garbage bag ties (usually red or orange colored) to the outside of the side of the container so I can see it from my window. I know when the truck has picked up my trash when the tie is gone and I can bring the container back to my house.

Good idea! I know mine has been picked up because the can is lying on its side in the middle of the street.

My daughter lives on a narrow street. It's like an obstacle course after the garbage has been picked up. Sad.

It is a great idea, even though our garbage crew sounds just like Susan's.
