Should I try to stop my landlords from taking out the trashcans?

I live in an apartment building. One unit is used by the landlords, the other five are tegular tennants.

My landlords like things “just so.” When they are in charge of taking the trashcans up to the curb, that’s done by five p.m.

I live a less scheduled life. I may be away from home noon to midnight, or home by four.

Trouble is, I’ve forgotten the trashcans a couple of times. My landlords are now convinced I cannot be trusted. For the past year or so, I’ve kept up with when it’s my turn to do the job. However, anytime after five, the trashcans may be out already.

My landlords are angry, but I’m getting pretty annoyed, too. I’m trying to do my share, but I simply don’t have the chance. I can’t very well plan my entire day around some trashcans.

What would you do? Sit back and let them deal with the extra work, or try to keep the peace by joining in the race?

I’ve told them what I’ve said here. They scoff.
