Fireworks shows are non-excludable (people can't be prevented from viewing the show even if they don't contribute to the cost) and non-rivalrous (if one person watched the show, it doesn't decrease the amount of enjoyment someone else can get out of it). Education, trash collection and public transportation all have elements of public goods, but they can also be excludable to some extent. For example, education is paid for through taxes and someone who doesn't pay taxes might not have access to it. Similarly, trash collection and public transportation are typically limited to certain geographic areas and require payment (such as purchasing a bus pass or paying for trash pickup).
