How can you forget its the same day every week. The only disruption is when there is a public holiday that week binday moves one day later.

Now knowing if its recycling that week, thats wizardry and I just go based off how full my recycling bin is or if my neighbours have theres out.

there are places that don't follow a weekly schedule but rather another number of days, presumably because it's considered a balance of lower cost and frequent enough pickup

I'm happy with my alternating garbage/cardboard and plastics/glass weeks, with the green bin picked up every week, though. seems like a perfect schedule — just enough time to get a bin of recycling worth putting out, and with the green bin coming weekly, I sometimes struggle to even get enough garbage to bother tying the bag up and putting it out

I just have a fortnightly recurring entry in my calendar for the recycling bin.

Dude, we are species that went from arguing about who does the dishes to arguing about who fills the dishwasher... We are not paying attention to bin day... lol.

Bin day is the highlight of my week so maybe I pay an abnormal amount of attention to it.
