Wers u weely bin

[SILVERONE]

Right, we have a black bin (gen garbage) and green bin (u guess it, garden waste) in the winter the black one gets emptied every week, but now it's summer, it rotates once every other week. Next week it's the green bins turn for emptying, ''thier's fork all in it'', but the black ones full :bang: I'v good mind to fill it with snow ''out of the garden of course''.
Ps we get a blue box not a lot bigger than a shoe box, for bottles & cans, :beer: ''ha ha''
Councils, don't yur love em

We had a green bin delivered by the council last year. We filled it and waited for it to be emptied, only to be told that "green waste is a front door collection only", we don't have a front street only a back street so they wouldn't empty it even if we left it out back where the bin waggon comes to empty our normal dustbin !!! so we sent it back.
Then when our borough started giving out green bags for paper and boxes for cans and bottles, we left them out on the back street only to be told "paper and bottles/can are a front door collection only" so I now have to take them round the corner and leave them outside someone elses door!!

I'm a sole trader and when I go to the tip I am not allowed to recycle any of my waste at all, even though I pay, which carries a minimum charge of ?35 plus vat ! All my paper and cardboard has to go into the general waste with all the other shit.

Council's, tossers all of em.

Here in the Breckland area we have had green bins for years.. When the recycling thing took off we were given a black bin for paper, plastics, tins etc.. collection of the black and green bins are alternated week on week all year round.

if we want to dump garden waste then we have to pay for a BROWN bin which is collected once a month ( for feck sake ! ) and no glass allowed in ANY bin !
No DIY waste allowed at all...

Yer right..

Grass cuttings etc go in the green one ( general crap, glass goes in whichever is nearest..same goes for the DIY crap.

Household items to big for the dustbins must be taken to the dump but you are not allowed to use a van of a trailer as then you are viewed as trade and are charged accordingly.
Also, only one large item PER WEEK allowed to be dumped there.. so local forest is now slowly turning into the biggest council tip in the world !

if you apply to your council offices you should get permission to use a trailer, coincidentally my permit has just arrived back to me this morning, I have had a permit for two years but had to get a new one due to changing my car.
Nobody has actually told me of any restrictions to the amount of times I can use it but when we were renovating my daughters house I did five trips with trailer in one day and amongst the rubbish were seven (yes seven) fridges that had been left by previous occupant, an old gear box and bell housing, and two cookers, and nobody questioned where they had come from.

I'll have to come clean now, I work for the council :blush: (Parks, Woodlands & Countryside) if we come across (when working) any fly tipping we have to remove it and take to the Dumpit site, that are now privately contracted out from the council, guess what they charge us for the privilege to dump in our own sites

I read in the local paper that we're getting brown bins for garden waste.
We've had green tubs years ago, and in the last couple of years a full-sized green bin that gets collected every 2 weeks.

My mate was trying to sell something to a company that's making a weighing device for the back of bin lorries. They're going to start charging you based on the weight of your rubbish!

I can see a lot of hedges being filled next year...

Four times now since october, our bin men have removed bags from our bin and left them at the side of the road, each time we rung the council to complain, each time they sent the same bin men back to collect the rubbish, is this a ploy to gain overtime? or is it just a vendetta cos we don't tip them at christmas, I have also requested (very politely) that they leave the bin at the edge of my drive where they collect it from and not in the middle of my drive, as they tend to come very early before I get home from work and it means me having to stop my car in the middle of the road, whilst I get out and move my bin out of the way, thus rendering some motorists rather irate.
they have to take about four more steps to leave the bin in the middle, so this makes me think they are doing it deliberately

In my last gaff we had green bins for general waste. Black bins for garden waste ans a smaller green bin for paper. Couldn't fookin move for bins.

Global warming is a myth

The earth spins on an 11 degree axis and rotates on this axis every 28,000 years. This process is called progerssion. We have no fookin idea of the planets natural processes and we've only been here for the blink on a celestrial eye so how the fook do we know that happening as part of a natural process or man made intervetion?
