Bin Day - CRD

Special bin day - Christmas Recycling Day....

Christmas recycling challenge done. It's always tricky with the additional cardboard from the Christmas presents delivered by Amazon, more visitors producing waste, wrapping paper, not to mention the cans and bottles. But we did it!

Careful packing was needed from the start, and the bins were brimming full.

Ignore the fact that we have two blue bins - we pinched the neighbour's bin about 10 years ago after he was rude to us. True recycling - what goes around comes around.

On bin collection day we were woken at 07.00 by the bin lorry, and our neighbour shouting “please wait, please wait” - amateurs! We watched as he chased after the lorry with a very full, single but more modern looking, wheelie bin. There was no way he wanted to be left another two weeks before the bin men would be back.

Long story short - he made it!

I would mention the reminder of ‘what bin when’ that can be configured on the council app - but I’ve given up.
