Why wheeled bins?
Wheeled bins are the common and modern way of collecting refuse, and are already used in many parts of England, including Poole, Bournemouth, East Dorset, Purbeck and Weymouth & Portland. Wheeled bins provide a convenient and safe storage system for householders, and a safer method of collection for the refuse collectors. They also help to reduce litter as the containers will stop cats, foxes etc, from ripping the bags open. The bins will help us meet statutory recycling and composting targets, and reduce the overall amount of household waste collected. If the targets are not met the Government can also fine local councils very heavily. This is a risk we don’t want to run.
