There have been new grit bins arrive now and then when somebody moans loud enough but as you say, some appear to fade away.

They are only filled once a year but I presume in extended frozen conditions some sort of top up would happen if necessary.


There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025

Just found out no bins will be emptied until 9th January. That's any colour! If not emptied today, must take bins back in!
