What happens if I can get all my rubbish into my wheeled bin? Can I leave extra bags of rubbish and pile the wheeled bin high so the lid doesn close?
We will only empty wheeled bins that have the lid closed. If your lid isn’t closed we will not empty your wheeled bin. Only wheeled bins will be emptied – any other rubbish will be left behind. This may seem a bit harsh but it is vital if we are to reduce the amount of rubbish we dispose of at the landfill site. Wheeled bins will be emptied only on the specified collection date. Our research tells us that the vast majority of homes will be able to get all their rubbish in the wheeled bins we provide, but larger households with five or more persons may require an additional wheeled bin.
