what to do with garbage bag?

We have a pop-up trash can with a lid for outside; line it with the right-sized bag, tie it off in the evening and take a walk to the nearest dumpster. Two waste cans inside lined with shopping bags. I imagine if we had to pack the trash out (no dumpsters)(riding in storage comp.), we'd just bring it home and dump in our dumpster.

I wouldn't leave trash outside overnight especially in areas were critters are about. Take it to the dumpster or a proper trash can.

We try to empty ours every night. Husband usually likes to ride ours down on his bike.
We camp where there are aminals so leaving it outside is not an option.

We usually "hang" a large garbage bag off the hitch of the TT. Bottom of the bag is on the ground - if necessary poke a hole through the edge of the top / opening of the bag to hang, keeps the opening of the bag off the ground. Our truck is usually parked in front of the TT blocking the view of the bag. If I am concerned about animals I put the bag in the bed of the truck at night and/or if the bag fills up. Dumpsters usually by the dump station, throw bag in on way out.

We usually have a small plastic grocery bag inside the TT for daily garbage hanging off a cabinent handle. We put that in the large outside bag when we go to bed and/or when it needs to be put outside.

Most times when we cook outside using a grill I will hang a plastic grocery bag off the grill frame or picnic table. Very convenient to have a bag right there.

Those small plastic grocery bags are very useful -- we use them all the time for all sorts of things. Wife sometimes has to intentionally "forget" to bring the reusable bags when grocery shopping so we get more of the plastic bags.

We have a pop up garbage can. I use small bags in the camper, when full out they go into the big outside can. every night it is taken to the dumpster.

Might be just be me, but I couldn't stand hanging a garbage bag from my awning :)

We have two small cans in the TT. Mostly I take the bags straight to the dumpster, but when travelling or when it's not covenient, I stick them in an old cooler that rides around in the bed of my truck. The cooler is used for wet, dirty or stinky objects that I want to contain, has come in very handy many times. Then we empty it when we get where we're going.

Can't leave it outside here or you may have a visit from a Bear (four legged) or Raccoon...... even seen a Raccoon open a metal trash can.... what a site .......it grabbed the handle & jumped up & down til the lid came off.... it then got in & had a feast............

Dumpster away from the camper is the best idea.........

This little guy got himself into the dumpster and is sleeping it off. Bears and raccoons are two good reasons not to keep any food or garbage outside.

Trash Management takes practice!!! .

I have a place to hang a trash bag inside, actualy separate trash and recycle. When full, I'll take it to a dumpster. Short trips, I may take it home, as I do with recycle. I have enough exterior storage for a half dozen kitchen trash bags.

During daylight hours we hang our "garbage BAG" from the picnic table, if necessary suspend it with the help of bungie cords. Inside the camper, we have a trash can under the sink with a trash BAG lining the inside. Depending upon the day, where the dumpsters are located, and just how tired we are, I will either take everything to the dumpster, take it to the dumpster when I dump my tanks using the blue tote, or bag everything into one bag and put it in the back end of my pick-up truck so critters will not break it open and scatter the contents all over by next morning.
