I've never bothered taking the can down to the road and just drop off the bags at road on way to work (fairly long driveway). My neighbors always use their can. Almost everyone I see uses a can. Just wondering why?

Cans do little to dissuade dogs from getting into garbage as all they have to do is knock them over. I've only once had dogs get into my bags on the 3 years I've lived here.
Also cans can get stolen. On windy days they get blown into street and either get hit or cause a ruckus. And finally, you have to bring the can home at the end of day---bags get dropped off and that's it.

It makes no sense to me

Guessing garbage cans aren't the only thing that doesn't make sense to you.

8 hilarious replies and yet no one can give me a good reason to use a can or why so many people use one.

Where I live, they won't pick up garbage if it's not in a can. Our cans must be bigger than the OP's g-can bc dogs can't knock our cans over.

I always use the garbage cans, with one exception.

We sometimes have to deal with medical waste where I work, and have these bright orange bags with a big biohazard symbols on them. I take one home on occasion and fill it up when I clean out the pantry or something and put it out on its own by the road, just to frick with the neighbors. Garbage dudes always take it, too.

So you are looking at this only from your point of view.

What about the garbage men? It may be easier on them if you used a can......

I typically just eat my food straight off the table. I can't understand why anyone would want to eat off of a plates: It's just something else that will need to be cleaned after dinner.

Curbside garbage pickup doesn't make sense to me either.

frick that, why don't you go all the way, pussy?

The whole waste management industry is one big needless scam. I just keep my trash in the house and live with it.

We use the cans so we don't have bags of trash sitting around the 100 degree garage waiting for pickup, stinking up the place.
