I do not understand the need for the same day pickup. All people have to do is stick their head out of the front window once per night and see if the neighbours have their garbage out. Is that too much work. Per efficiencies sake Instead of one side garbage all the time, the side of the street can be alternating just like parking is some cities. One week on one side, next week on next side just like the watering by-law in the summer odd and even house numbers. Again all the forgetting neighbours have to do is stick their head out and look where others are putting the garbage...
Or why don't wee hire two loading guys per truck that would cover both sides of the street in one drive, a bit more walking for one of them, but it could be a solution on less busy narrow streets.
Also lowering garbage limit to 2 would be dumb, we would stuff them to the brim and be equivalent of 3 into 2 and no gain for anyone. People would do what people do. We need to be smart here and pick the well thought out things that actually might work in certain neighborhoods or streets.
A smart app with a notification for the day and the side of the road would also help on the efficiency of the whole system.
Now that said, it could be more challenging in winter and in busier streets with higher speed limits, more older folks in the area, or having neighbors that do things out of spite because they can and would put max amount of garbage on your side on the grass etc...nothing is that simple as said off course.
