again the wheely bin is crawling!!

bins dont get collected till tue, so its going to hgave to be a trip the tip tomorrow to get rid..

but

once the bins have been collected on tue what can we put in place so as they dont just keep coming back, steves on the front with the cillit bang now............ we suffered all summer last yr coz of the fortnightly collections

Get onto ya local MP, the more that do the more likely action will be taken.

Sorry I know im not much use with this, but I can't see what people can do whilst the government insist on this recycling crap... They say we will get fined £100million per tonne of un-recycled waste or whatever...

Simple solution: Get the fook out of the EU and get back to running our own country. Just stay in the EEC and EERM and problem solved.

thanks matty xx

I wonder if it gets that bad, Enviromental Health can make a log of the problems? It may go a little (I stress the word little) way to getting something done about the problem.

our bins get emptied every 2 weeks, is it the same your way??

we have to recycle one week, then normal bins the next week.
and we HAVE to recyle or get fined £1000.

our bins stink and we have to jet wash um every 2 weeks after our bin collection.

2 weeks is way too long to wait for collection, we never used to have a problem when it was weekly collections.


damn you council people

Blame it on the government and the EU... you see these issues I rant about do affect people hehe

I never rant about bins though cos the issues dont affect me, only good fing about living in these god-forsaken flats!!

Theres no recycling scheme in the flats I was in in Preston...but we still had the occasional maggot..

Lazy student lifstyle..

Not looking forward to another stinking Summer

i had the same problem i spoke to the mp but she was useless so i rang street scence and they emptyed my bins the next day...

fortunately up here, they arent too hard on recycling - not sure if that's a good or bad thing (depends how they go about it i guess)

our general waste bin gets emptied every monday and our garden waste every other tuesday

no maggots unfortunately, just a smelly bin as u would expect anyway lol.

Simple soultion. Put normal waste inside cardboard boxes i.e. Cat Food ones and bang em in the recyling You dont get caught cause council officers dont want to go through your rubbish cause there more preocupied in wasting tax payers money on idiots who siffle through it at the tip..

need more bins, overloading is a cause for concern for a start

clever stuff wadster

I dont know how it will stop the maggots, but it means you can keep your lid shut and keep them concealed within the bin.
