That is so nice, Cyn..
In our city the nice Garbage collectors, have to come up to the garage to pick it up. DD puts it out every Sunday for me, as I can't do it safely, anymore.
The Mailman usually does put a rubber band, if there are many and puts it all inside my Storm door. Paper person does the same thing.
I hate this crappy disease, but it does bring out the best in peeps..
