If a household recycles cardboard, paper, medal, glass, cloth and has a garbage disposal unit would he have more than 5 gallon of trash each week?

Would a hand full of bags for green stuff with stickers be his total trash needs?


When I remodeled my house, I got rid of the garbage disposal.  I realized I rarely use one since I started composting kitchen waste.

That would be awesome. I wouldnt have to snake the kitchen drain from the roof, which seems to be like once a year. I really would like to just buy one of those snakes and save the rental fee like I did with the toilet auger.
I just keep dreaming of the day that I become a empty nester.
Changing opinions one mistake at a time.

Then you can keep your 95 gallon cart because the garbage from 21 meals in plastic bags could become quite smelly in the hot weather.
