2. Are the containers provided by the Waste Collection company?

Our Waste Collectors provide us with two trash bins blue for non recyclables and green for recycling.
We put both on the curb in the morning of trash collection, the truck pulls up grabs that trash bin and dumps it. No one has to handle the garbage.

The company owns the bins and is responsible if they are damaged.

On a side note: we noticed that most of our trash is recyclable since we have the two bins. Paper, plastic, glass, aluminum and other metals.
