Garden waste goes in a brown bin.
The 'garden waste' lorry has just left the street.
The council workers are not allowed to come on to properties, so residents have to take the bin to the pavement.
This pillock lined up 5 bins across the road, ready for the lorry, that was reversing. He emptied all 5, then left them in the middle of the road and facked off
As we're in a cul-de-sac, and only 2 houses from the end, we see hardly any traffic.
This is still no reason to leave bins in the road.
The man in the corner house arrived home a few minutes ago, and he had to get out of his car to move them, to be able to get to his drive.
He's not a happy bunny
I could tell by the way our bin ended up on the other side of the road.
Mrs CMAT will now have to walk an extra 12 paces to get it back in
I hope she makes me a cuppa first, I don't like to be kept waiting.
We never get this problem with the 'green bin' man (recycling)
Or the 'dark grey' bin man (household rubbish)
or the 'light grey' bin man (food waste)

They only get three points for a green bin (four for a brown)
What has his colour got to do with anything.. white binmen can act just as stupid..I'm absolutely fuming that you should single out brown people like this.I'm gonna have to report this post taxi...you've done it this time matey.
You take your own bins out and in Is there no community spirit down south?? Neighbours do it for us up here

(be fair, how could she not)
I got my cuppa before she retrieved the bin.

Bin men coming right into peoples gardens to get the bin then cart it out on their back seems a strange thing. Funny how attitudes change.

On their back?
Where do you live?
All wheelie bins here.

Our local free paper a couple of years ago...
"Name and shame the people who exchange their scruffy bin for someone else's clean one"....
It isn't the residents that exchange their bins, but the stupid effing bin men, who are incapable of putting them back where they belong.

They sift through our bins for any reason not to empty them. I now have to put the right rubbish in the right bins!
I remember when we first moved up here in 2005, to March, Cambridgeshire.
After everything was unpacked there were loads of cardboard boxes to throw away.
I thought I'd do the binmen a favour, tied them up in bundles and put them in black plastic rubbish bags as it was spring, and rain would make a mess of the cardboard.
I looked out as the lorry pulled away, the idiot in charge of emptying them had taken all the cardboard and thrown the bags and string into a pile in the garden. I went out after the driver, who was two houses away, and asked him what the point of that was.
'We only take cardboard.' he said.
I said 'I'm not talking about the cardboard, why couldn't he put the bags and string in the right dustbin?'
'We're not allowed on your property' he said.
And it's the same here in Norfolk.

On a UK scale, yes, I suppose so.
Can't recall exactly where Eye is, but I did a days work there when I was 17 though.

We have got a 'glass' bin, but it doesn't hold much, and the council don't hsve a 'glass' collection vehicle.
Once a month it all goes into the 'Bottle Bank' in the local B&Q stores car park, which is about 5 miles away.
The official council dump is 5 miles further on.

we got, bin for plastic,bin for bottles,bin for cardboard, bin for paper, bin for tins/foil, bin for food waste, bin for household rubbish and £20 charge for taking household furniture upto 3 items or 1 whole bed.
We have to put foil in the household rubbish bin now, but it used to go into the 'recycling' bin.
I've just fitted a new landline phone. Where can I dispose of the old one please?
Thanks but can't be bothered with that. I'll just stick it in with my normal waste.
Councils make a fortune from this recycling bollox,so much money they have spent a fortune on new wheelie bins. But they charge us now to collect our garden waste cuz they make fcuk all from green waste!! I recycle nothing, until the Council give me a cut they can fack off!!
some months our council can make as much as £50k on recycled stuff which they give to various charities, I just wish they would give it to charities in our county.
It must be a tough job, cold and wet in the winter and surrounded by flies and repugnant smells in the summer.
indeed cooper , the bin men doing my road are top fellas . Deserve their pay and more .
Canny - do you have a recycling box for oddments ? then take it in one swoop to the centre maybe ? they take anything there ,but not radioactive waste according to the signs

Coach', I have one re-cycling bin, with 2 sections. One is for cans, bottles, jars, food cans, aerosols foil etc. The other is for paper, cardboard catalogues etc.
