Thanks for the update.  Let's see how this plays out.  It's not time yet anyways.  I mean we just fell back this weekend. The folks closest to the YC in the condos were asked to wait 2-3 months for things to settle out (with smaller/taller cans).  One can in garage rules out any vehicle unless it has two wheels.  

My neighbors continue to do both plastic and paper with mixed results and we are on the truck route.  I'm waiting another six weeks just because I only like doing leaves twice, usually about a hundred bags, rather than every three days.  Sorry up front to the do-gooders for us waiting for our windy support with leaves going everywhere including back into my neighbors yards and the old formally designated OPA ditch in front of the house.  It's our plan and it has worked for years, why change now.  

A side note; the man-less trash truck has seemed faster, quicker without the human help.  I'm still okay with the wait and see, bc I do this every year regardless what my DRs say.  Merely both a spectator and participator in the annual "new plan" that I've witnessed over the past fifty plus years.... 

Maybe this year we will just mulch them with the mower that some say is most natural and healthy for our crab grass.  Or we can just blow them into the islands and call that mulch.  Hmmm.
