My city uses totes. I’ve started lining them with a contractor bag and dumping my trash into that.
Partly to reduce plastic (re-using the indoor liners until they are too funky to continue). Mostly because the tote is smaller on the bottom than on the top and this results in a lot of void space, and they charge us extra if we go over the tote.
I kinda do that too, but the trash goes into a “dumpster” i made from a deck box from home depot then that gets hauled the landfill when full. No monthly fee to jack with as i dont generate that much trash per month.
