TapBig Bin Day

Today is our first day of the new rubbish collection regime. We expect lorries around for the Brown Bin, the Black box and the Cardboard. There should also be one for the Green Bin but it will bypass us because we didn’t buy one. Next week there will be “Even Bigger Bin Day” when they collect the Black Bin as well.

Does that look like saving the planet to you—four trucks clogging the roads where a few years back there would have been just the one?

Another side effect of the Brown Bin is that we now have very little paper to recycle because it is all used up lining the Mini Brown Bin to try to keep it reasonably clean.

P.S. The rubbish web site is rubbish. The important links are broken and the details based on post code completely contradict the leaflets we have been sent.

Update: The website is rubbish and the Brown Bin truck did arrive today. And they took the cardboard so it is only three trucks not four!

Update: They moved the web page so I have corrected the link above—but it is still rubbish.
