    Default Local council / Waste disposal

    Hello all.

    I wondered if anyone can help me.

    I live in a multi dwelling property of 8 people (2 houses put into together in 8 flats) and the local council has only provided 4 small bins and said that is adequate disposal for our waste, and they are refusing to rectify the situation. I've spoken to other flats down the street who have the right amount of bins (one per property) provided for free.

    Any help where I stand with this would be appreciated, as they are refusing to do anything else unless we pay for them.

    Cheers.

    Bearington

    I don't know the answer but I'm guessing their logic is 2 dwellings equates to 2 normal sized bins which translates to 4 mini bins.

    Council's are really cutting back on the amount of domestic waste they're collecting. Have they provided you with recycling bins also??

    Makes sense but my point is every other building down the street has one per property (even in multi dwellings) so I'm at a loss here about why ours is any different

    Update:

    After a very strongly worded email about taking this further, I came home on friday to find the correct amount of bins outside our building and an apologetic email from the local council admitting they were in the wrong.

    Score!

    Well done Bearington!

    I'm not sure why it seems such a victory when we manage to force our public servants to actually carry out the work they are paid (our taxes) to do - but for some reason that seems to be the way things have turned out!
