Families who overload their bins risk £2,500 fines and criminal convictions.

How ridiculous, councils are partly responsible for making it difficult to get rid of our rubbish.
Just look at various areas you travel through and see the disgusting bins obstructing pavements, roads, streets, estates in general.

We can put vegetation in our bins but not unused soil from plant pots.

The councils are making money from our rubbish and causing a horrible mess doing such.

Who checks if it's unused?

Where I stay folk used to get a huge sticker on their bin saying "We can't empty it because you public such and such in the bin and that's not allowed"

It's not long until we're moving on to the black bins getting emptied every three weeks.

Yet they're going to start emptying the garden bin every week.

North Lanarkshire Council couldn't run a ménage.

Why don't people vote in councils who will stop this practice?

I read a lot on here about democracy but I doubt that many actually vote in local elections.

If you want a future that doesn't involve possible prosecution for overfilling bins then find out which party which opposes it and frigging vote for them, if you're that impassioned then campaign for them!

It's far easier to moan and be rolled over by stuff like this than to actually do something about it :woteva:

My dad's going to a council meeting to complain about it Stooo.

He'll probably end up getting lifted, he's got a very short fuse.

It's the first day of our new bin system and nobody has a clue what's going on.

Every household has four bins and we've put all four of them out.

There's no space on the pavement to walk now.

Did they leave it half way along the street Stooo? That happened to me a while back.

I found it down near the shops, gawd knows how it got there.

Someone nicked my Gran's bin once, she phoned 999 to report it.

When they found out she was in her eighties, they didn't charge her with misusing the emergency number.

few year back a London council had ordered the wrong size recycling lorries , the recycling lorries were half the size that they expected to have , the recycled lorries were fulling loaded in no time , so the recycle Lorry would meet up with the landfill lorry and throw the recycle waste into the landfill lorry , and would tipped in landfill , but the same council would punish its residents for not using their bins properly, even though the council was breaking the rules themselves
