I pick it up and put it in a plastic bag and throw it in the garbage bin....havent had a problem w/that yet.
I have a "poopbucket"-a garbage can (with a lid!) with a plasic bag inside. When the bag gets about half full, we tie it off and throw it in the trash bin for the garbage guys to take. I know animal waste isn't allowed in with the normal trash in some places, though, so you might want to check that out if you're moving into town.
