Re: Wow ..That Was quick
It took me four times of asking, three blue bags, and two white bags, before I got my blue box. What have you got that I haven't?????
(By the time I got the blue box, I had a lot of bottles, though......) |

Re: Wow ..That Was quick
This sort of speedy, efficient service should be the norm for any Council. Unfortunately it is rare for our Council. I can see no reason to offer salutations for this service, as this is what the service should be like. When HBC manage to provide this kind of service for everybody and the provision of that service is consistent, then they will have earned a salute...

Re: Wow ..That Was quick
When I rang the (lets get it right) Recycling Helpline. I was told that (at the time) we were going onto fortnightly collections and so I was a priority case. (I only wanted blue and white sacks). It was a surprise to me that it only took them three weeks and then in a Salford Van Hire van!!!
 With H.B.C. you will be |

Re: Wow ..That Was quick
I asked for one when l moved into my new house exactly a year ago this week. l'm still waiting!
When l lived in Wandworth in the early 90's we got money knocked off our council tax if we took part in the voluntary scheme. This seemed extra good, as we were already paying the lowest council tax in the conuntry. One year all l paid was £14 for the whole year! Red Rindy looks back fondly on the years living in one of the Tory flag ship boroughs.
