Who cares, it's all going to the same place. You parted with your trash, it's not like it's a storage bin for you to get stuff out of later.

Many people do this after the bins have already been emptied, meaning that for the next week, you have to deal with a bin that smells like dog shit.

So? The lid is closed and keeps 99% of the smell down.

Are you sitting right next to yours while chilling or something?

I open mine maybe 3x a week to put a bag in, big whoop it stinks.

Mine is right next to our garage, and on a path to the backyard. I can smell our bin from a few feet away with the lid closed, and that's without poop in there (though now we have cat poop, so it smells worse) and only grass/tree clippings and whatever spilled out of the bags.

It's gross, but certainly not enough to get mad over, especially since I don't care enough to actually wash it out (maybe I will soon though, idk). But it's still unpleasant. If the smell wasn't my fault though, I would be a lot more annoyed.

I used to put the garbage inside the garage in the winter (we get snow here), but the smell killed that idea.
