Historically, ‘garbage’ was specifically food waste, what we now would call ‘kitchen scraps’ or ‘compost’ if you live somewhere with a municipal composting program, or compost yourself. (Historically, ‘compost’ generally referred to the finished compost, rather than also the waste going in.) ‘Trash’ was other non-compostable refuse.
TL;DR Trash goes to the dump, garbage goes to the pig pen or compost bin

However, this was behind a coffee kiosk at a mall, so I’m going to go with ‘the manager isn’t too bright.’
