Todd: Marion, can you tell me about the trash? How do I take out the trash?

Marion: OK, let's see. On Monday, Wednesday and Friday, you can leave your burnable trash outside.

Todd: What is burnable trash?

Marion: Burnable trash is for example, milk cartons, other paper things, and food as well. You can put all the remains of your food in the burnable bin.

Todd: OK, so burnable trash is Monday, Wednesday, Friday.

Marion: That's right.

Todd: OK, what about the other trash?

Marion: OK, on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, you can leave your unburnable trash outside your door.

Todd: OK, what is unburnable trash?

Marion: Unburnable trash is for example, plastic. So you can't burn plastic, so non burnable, or unburnable. So plastic for example, other things that would harm the environment, if you were to burn them.

Todd: OK, what about plastic bottles?

Marion: That's on Saturday, as well, so you can leave plastic PET bottles and also glass bottles, but in a separate bin. You can leave all those bottles on Saturday, as well.

Todd: OK, anything else, like batteries, or clothing?

Marion: Yes, for batteries and clothing there are special days every month, so you have to keep them until maybe one day, or two days in the month when you can leave out things like batteries or clothes, or bigger things.

Todd: OK, and where do I put the trash?

Marion: You have to put all the trash in clear plastic bags and leave them just outside your apartment. Just over there, on the left.

Todd: OK. Thanks Marion.

Marion: You're welcome.

Todd: I might have to ask you again, but thanks.

Marion: Don't worry. That's fine.
