   You sound like a man like me, Carlos.   
      
   Our local Council has given every household a small bin, maybe 3 - 4   
   litres, to put our kitchen waste into. That then gets emptied into a 150   
   - 200 litre bin along with any garden waste.   
      
   My 3 - 4 litre bin gets emptied, maybe, weekly and I'd only put the   
   bigger bin out every 6 - 8 weeks (except when my sister makes use of it!!).
