Right. We took up a bunch of carpet last year and the township we live in gladly took it, as long as we cut it down to the size they asked. But I did, put it on the curb and the next day it was gone. No extra fees, no special pick up, etc.

I have family in Washington state. They give you one garbage can and I think if you want another one, you have to pay for it, and then for the pick up of that garbage can. I always looked at it and said, what if you host Thanksgiving dinner and generate more trash than normal? You're just paying extra to host, I guess.
