Sorry to any binmen on the forum..
Just had our collection done (5 days late due to Xmas hols) - the binmen who take the black bags have refused to take the 4 small black bags we had outside the wheelie bin and while they were down our road they demolished a tree opposite us and left a huge broken branch in the road which cars are swerving to avoid now..
I called up the council and asked what the deal was and they said they don't pick up side waste only what is in the wheelie bin..I said but you came a week later than normal how can I not have extra waste at Christmas? I could have gone out myself and put it in the bloody truck!
The second woman I spoke to was brave enough to say "if you were recycling properly you wouldn't have extra waste" I said that's a good one, the recycling van that picks up our cardboard boxes hasn't been seen for 3 weeks I have a shed full of it! ****ers!
As for the tree..****ed if I am picking it up! Hope they get more complaints.
