Tenants wont take garbage out

Hi everyone, two months ago I bought my first duplex. And recently I am having problems with the tenants, each apartment has their own garbage can that sits on the garage, they fill them during the week, but won't take the cans out the Curbside Waste Pickup day. I started the eviction process, but should I take the trash out or leave it there until they decide to do it?

Any advice will be really appreciate it.

Take the trash down yourself and charge the tenant for your services. You can deduct those fees from their deposit after they are gone.
