Where I live they discourage that. They also don’t want you to use paper bags. The reasons as far as I remember are that more waste will fly away when emptying the dumpster and nastier dumpsters causing worse working conditions for the person driving the truck. The third reason (doesn’t apply to me personally) is sorting based on bag color.
Not everyone needs to use a dedicated desktop/laptop at home. You might do whatever you need to do quicker on a desktop or laptop but if you aren’t working that may not be an issue. I know several people who fit this description.
