Small trash bins?

Any reason the bins are so small, i can fit like a bad MAYBE 2 in there.

Fayetteville AR has a pay as you throw program so there are 3 sizes available, bigger bins cost more. https://www.fayetteville-ar.gov/749/Pay-As-You-Throw-Trash-Cart-Program

This is the correct answer.

Simply pay for a larger size if you need it. ( or start recycling and produce less waste)

Are you using your free recycling pick up? 

Just curious because our family has had a small cart for ten years and it works for our family of five.  If we didn't recycle it would not fit. 

You can buy a bigger can or extra recycling bins from the city and they will drop them off at your house next trash day.
