Default Re: Recycling not working

Get used to it in Colne, we have had that fun (not) in Burnley for a while now.

They are now offering larger bins to families of 5 (was 6) yet you have to fill in an application form, explaining exactly what & how you do recycle & are then also told you will have to have a further survey if you do get a bin.
Rumour has it that you can pick up blue recycling bins at varying places I.E. Thomson Centre etc.

I would need 2 more to make 3 boxes tio fill with all my recyclables, so why on earth do they not just issue a big blue/green wheelie bin for recyclables only.
This would save an awful lot of carrying around etc.
I'm sure that many older folks cannot pick up & carry these blue boxes when they get full.
