Oh, they used bags, even on dry days. But the bags were made of a super-flimsy 0.5-mil film which had zero chance of surviving the landing on a rough concrete driveway when thrown from the curb. And they usually landed right at the drip line at the front of the garage. On wet days they would sometimes double-bag, but it really didn't help. (Did I mention the bags were flimsy?) Their website had a page to report a damaged paper. You could request (1) a new paper or (2) a credit on your account...and option 1 never worked.
