not sure if this is useful but before i started composting and recycling, a family of four we used to generate a full three bags of garbage a week. now i buy 100 garbage bags last me over a year.
sometimes we dont have any garbage in the garbage bin for pick up. sometimes its just one bag every two weeks mostly filled with plastic bags and plastic wrappers. savings about 10 dollars a year or so on garbage bags but savings to the planet and the environment is incalculable as 70 percent of pollution from waste deposit sites are from kitchen waste and kitchen waste contamination of other recyclable products.
