Where I live, Portland, Oregon, our garbage is only picked up once a fortnight, but the recycling and compost is picked up every week. All those take-out boxes (if paper), and kitchen scraps, get tossed in with the compost. I use paper bags, not plastic, and before Covid, bought most of my stuff in the bulk section, which reduced packaging. I had neighbors who could not understand how my tiny garbage bin was never full, when they filled two much larger ones, until I showed them that the kitchen waste could go in the compost bins. Now they put out three compost bins each week, for only four people. They order out a lot.
