I recycle since all this started and im religiously sorting everything. I compost and do everything im supposed to do BUT my bin is always full!
I have a very large garden due to being a corner house.
I have 4 lawns which in effect 4 gardens but only one standard garden bin. As ive said i do everything im supposed to do but take this week for instance which was garden bin day. It was full so i stood guard while they emptied it lol because when its heavy they dont like emptying it (they ignored it twice last year). Anyway, once it was empty i immediately filled it again with lawn cuttings that id had to put in binliners. This is week in week out and im never straight! I always have at least 3 extra wheely bin liners full in my garden somewhere. You can only compost so much!!
When you leave stuff in liners they either get attacked by cats or squirrels which isnt nice when you have to pick stuff up either stinking of cat wee or poo lol!!
On recycling day the streets are extra messy from all the paper they dont tip in the vans properly or plastic bottles blowing round the streets.
From a self centred point id like a bigger garden bin but from a more workable realistic point of view id like to see weekly collections back because its getting ridiculous the amount of litter on our streets due to all this madness!  |
