    Question How many bags of trash per week?

    We go through about three large bags of trash per week.
    How about you?

    I use grocery bags and I put one a day in our trash can, so that would make about 7 grocery bags a week...

    Generally 2 small white kitchen bags plus 4 -5 grocery bags. I use the grocery bags in the baths and for anything that might make the kitchen smell.
