Who should take the trash out?

Who in your house should be taking the trash out? My husband can’t be bothered and im over it. I do everything else In the house is it really too much to ask for him to do trash? Anyone else share this struggle?

We both do it. The way we look at it is if you notice it’s full you take it out. It’s simple and it’s fast. Chores that need to be done never sit and wait for one specific person. We both live here. We both help.

I know exactly what your going through and so I just leave it and he will get it . But he don’t thank he should have to do anything and I quit washing his cloths because he never wanted to do anything around the house . And don’t let me get sick cause he’s not there for me like I have been for him and everything else and that’s why it will never work for us . I thank mine is a narcissist .

My partner. But we had an agreement before moving in that I won’t be taki g out the trash or doing the dishes. Have a talk with him, and if he doesn’t agreed to it then stop doing anything else for him.

My husband normally takes it out to the curb. However, the trash can inside the house anybody can take it. My take on it is if you see that it’s full take it out.

In our house we rotate. Everyone who is old enough and capable of taking it out has an assigned day on their chore chart.

My husband and his little workers take the trash out. If they forget it will sit there :nail_care:

It’s kinda a everybody chore in our house… today our 10 year daughter noticed it was full and took it out.

Stop doing everything else and only take out the trash :blush:

My husband and my kids usually take it out, but lately it’s been just my husband because we have been decluttering our house

Anyone in the house can take the trash out.

My partner does is and sometimes my mom when she comes over. It’s one thing and if you do everything else then I don’t see why he can’t. Have you asked him to do it? Can you say I’d like this to be your job please? Any other family members to do it? Is there a valid reason he won’t?

Normally my 14 yr son as one of his chores. My 8 yr old son also helps which recycling or bags that’s aren’t too heavy for him. Sometimes my husband takes it out if it ended up getting full ona day that wasn’t assigned to the kids.

Before my husband became bedridden, he did it. Now everything is on me

Think this is the common argument in most households, I’ve got 3 here and still have to bitch until it gets done.

Who ever sees it needs to go out.No big deal.

Sounds like a divorcable offense :roll_eyes::roll_eyes::roll_eyes:

Hubby does it, takes rubbish to the dump, makes dinner, cleans the beds with the vax hoover and tends to outside but that’s about it. If i ask him to do something or help me with something he will do it. Can u give him something else to do other than that?

Whoever is up early enough on Monday morning!
