I have no idea what's in your bags, but I would LOVE to get rid of that much stuff from my house. It always feels like losing weight when we dejunk. Good job.
It took Matt 3 1/2 hours to mow our lawn today! Normally it takes 1 1/2 hours. But it was a beast. He had to bag pretty much every pass in our back yard. It will take us weeks to get it out with the trash.
wow. impressive guess. if it is any comfort, i have been pulling all of the dead growth out of our many flower gardens, and i can only do a little at a time because the dead growth takes up so much space in our garbage cans. i always have about 2 piles that won't fit into the garbage cans that have to sit until the next weeks' garbage run.
They prefer us to do the yard waste pick up, but it has to be in special bags that we have to purchase. The bags are about a third of the size of these bags, so we'd have had to use about 60 yard waste bags! Not to mention it would be a total pain. This is the only time in the season we bag. The rest of the time we'll just mulch.
Now that the snow has melted and it feels a little more like spring, we decided to do a bit of clean up around here.

How many flower gardens do you have?! It must be a ton!
I was going to guess grass or weeds. We have at least that many bags full of weeds in our yard!
At least you can mow your lawn. Ours is currently under (more) snow!
Our weeds were especially bad this year. I'm not sure why since we had our sprinkler system last year and did yard treatments...
But it seems like everyone's yard has way more weeds this year than last.
Do you have the option of yard waste pick up? I know that we can't put yard waste in our regular trash...
