We also have a choice of 3 sizes of city-supplied cans, for ordinary garbage. It's a reasonable compromise between 1-size-fits-all & pay-as-you-throw. There's little incentive for bad behavior. City supplied cans that trucks pick up like dumpsters was inevitable because of labor costs. Recycling was inevitable too. Even though it currently costs more than it brings in because of the low prices for recycled materials, it reduces the volume of garbage going into landfills.
