Forums Forums General Forums A - Z Lifestyle New Grey bin? FAQ

WTF! your not meant to crush them!?!?

either we simply put everything in one bin for you guys to recycle or we don't. Simple.

No one wants to be faffing about with rubbish for half an hour being careful not to crush the fooking plastic bottles, even if it is to help the environment!

When you get a mo read the booklet that came with your new bin,
or use the link in the first post..

Its comical i'm going to do my first bit of recycling just now.

I have to rinse out a Tub Butter.

Wish me luck lol

This is daft.

So let me get this right...

they accept foil and yoghurt pots, but not youghurt pot foil lids
they accept glass, but not broken glass
they accept plastic, but not plastic bags
they accept magazines, but not catalogues

WHAT THE F**CK IS GOING ON?!?!

leaflet is utter cack

Try and solve this:

WEEK 1: we will collect just your green wheelie bin

• WEEK 2: we will collect your grey wheelie bin

• WEEK 3: we will collect your green wheelie bin again

• WEEK 4: we will collect your grey wheelie bin again

Your brown bin will also be collected on your usual day


Q: so what day is the brown bin collected?




Anybody want my rubbish then?

hey don't forget the Grey bin that takes
papers and magazines don't take shredded paper lol

I'm now reading the booklet to decide the fait of my Tub of butter.

It has a lid,
and a folie bit and cardboard?

Reading .........

joe brown bin is the same day its always been collected on

For me its a Thursday every 2 weeks

but i dont even have a brown bin!!! ARGHGHGHGHGHGGHHHH

Do you have a garden ?

no........ but thats not the point.

my point is...the scheme is confusing and lame

Agreed, my tub of butter is sitting next to me not knowing where to go?

Green Bin or the Grey Bin ?

I 'd say black bin lol stuff them if you get it wrong, you're new to this malarky - make it hard for them (pardon! - no not in that sense)

I've just burnt me tea working out which god dam bin.

Eggs - Egg Shell -->> GREEN
EGG BOX -- GREY
Tin Of Beans --->> GREY (Washed it out too)
Bacon -->> Packaging -->> GREEN

Tub of Butter --->>> GREEN

That was that plarver over with lol

Burnt me Toast looking it up

The Booklet via the Wirral web site does not show the
extras that the printed booklet has?

Plastic Bottles
Please Remove bottle Tops.
Rinse bottle but do not crush.

Paper
Please no Shredded Paper

Cans
Please Drop the lid or ringpull into the can or tin.
Squeeze but do NOT flattern.

Sorry pics are from my phone

The bin men have called up my street to collect the Grey Bin Rubbish today.

Give them a little credit i did see one of the lads
walking up driveways to get the grey bins.

I think he was doing this because 80% of the bins
in my street were GREEN when they should have been GREY today.

So i'm having a quiet laugh as there is a green bin
in my street that's overflowing and its also has bin
bags next to it, but the next collection for green is
another week away

Fun and games
