I see my neighbours bins every bin day overflowing and it’s got me wondering how much rubbish do you think you actually produce per person each week?

Not including any recycling, or waste food collection which is separate, just what we call the black bin here, I reckon we as a household of two on average we put less than two black bin bags out a fortnight, that’s less than half a black bag each a week.

    One person household - excluding recycling/food waste, I empty the kitchen bin every 6-8 weeks or so. If the wastepaper baskets need doing I do them at the same time.
