So sorry your municipality is not on the ball with recycling. Start complaining, even if they collected once a month it would be a start!
Some stores will let you refill your own jug with water for a great price.

cut off the bottom for a funnel
this time of year mine are planters....cut off below the handle. add drain holes.
Cut out bottoms and use as a “hothouse” to start plants while weather is still too cool.
Thank you for your idea!!
I love making them into baskets
