They are supposed to get back to missed collections within 2 days. It looks like they forgot you forgotten waste again.

If you are only putting non-recyclable waste into your wheelie bin and it is not big enough, why don't you contact the council and invite them to explain what you should do with your waste. I am still waiting to hear from someone who had them round to their house to help with recyling.
They made the offer, has anyone taken them up on it?

Re: Guilty of fly tipping
I think they have gone to fortnightly collections to try and force people to recycle. Basically the wheelie bin is not big enough for the average household for 2 weeks without recycling.

Re: Guilty of fly tipping
Got a bloke banging on the door yesterday from Hyndburn Works giving me abuse about bin bags at the side of my bin, saying next week 2000 pound fine. He started opening the bags in front of me to see i am recycling, spilling contents on my drive and not picking it up.
Who do these Hitlers think they are?
Can we not vote to sack the lazy gits for a private company?
Can i get back to the old bins to hold hot ashes because to get rid of your rubbish we need to go back to coal fires?
Can we not sack all the council with a vote of no confidence?

Re: Guilty of fly tipping
If he didn't manage to prove that any of the contents were recyclable did he then offer any suggestions as to what else you are expected to do with the stuff?

Hi Willow.
He told me to take it to the tip myself, or phone the depot and they will pick up, but leave your back gate open for 14 days.

Re: Guilty of fly tipping
I presume you were thrilled to bits at the idea of leaving your gate open for a fortnight so all and sundry could wander in!

Re: Guilty of fly tipping
maybe all the people who are disapointed with their service should hire a waggon and tipp all our exess crap outside the townhall in protest and see how long it takes them to clear it up
it would be interesting to see if THEY bother to seperate recycable and non recycable crap in the clean up process
i dont know why people are sayin the council offer to do this and they offer to do this they must have blind faith in our council as they very rarely keep to any prommise they ever make
maybe if they kicked all the scroungers of housing benefit they could afford to provide a propper service to those that PAY council tax
when i say scroungers i obviously only mean those that intentionaly stay off work because they are too bone idle to look for a job and see benifits as as career
