In Western Australia we’ve been rolling out FOGO bins (Food and Garden organics waste), last summer i didn’t tie off one of the bags properly and there were maggots everywhere, spilling out of the bin.
I guess this could happen with general waste bins as well, so i suppose i’ve changed my attitude on the wrapping up waste to go in your bin idea. The only way i see around it is more home composting.
Putting garbage in clean plastic bags to throw it away is an absurd practise. Why can’t we just transfer it in reusable bins?

I don’t think you sufficiently respect the mess, the smell, the vermin, from a week of rotting exposed food waste. Not to mention the dog waste
I respect the hell out of it!
