Well I finally did it, I decided to cancel the garbage pickup, I might be crazy!
We can take the recycling to the local park, they have a cool center there. But I actually am not certain what we are doing with the rest!
Right now we actually can use the worksite dumpsters, but I don't want to do that forever, I just want to spend less than 300 a year on garbage.
I have started recycling the paper more, sending it in with DH for work, and we already fling a lot of the food scraps to the backyard woods. I keep telling DH the goal is to get a family of feild mice or something so the cats have prey, but so far I think they erradicated all small animals, we havn't had any 'presents' in ages. I love the fact that I can drive to major stores and malls and Drs and Hospitals usually in under 30 minutes (traffic depending) but out my back door I have deer, and occasionnally a raccon, but I think Fire killed it... (fire is the momma cat)

I agree about the outdoors. We have two acres and then woods, lots of squirrels, deer, a shrew (don't ask!), etc. They are great at cleaning up scraps!
