I see my neighbours bins every bin day overflowing and it's got me wondering how much rubbish do you think you actually produce per person each week?

Not including any recycling, or waste food collection which is separate, just what we call the black bin here, I reckon we as a household of two on average we put less than two black bin bags out a fortnight, that's less than half a black bag each a week.

About a supermarket carrier bag full every 3rd week. Not that you can get one any more, fortunately “charities” keep shoving suitable alternatives through my letterbox 🙂 Everything else goes in the other six recycling bins.
