| Nick, you say:- "We could start by getting the council to ditch the white plastic sacks for plastic and just allowing plastic to go in the green box along with everything else. It's collected by the same people and gets dumped in the same truck as everything else." But the plastics are not collected by the same truck as the rest of the recycling - well it isn't in my part of Acton. The green box and food waste are always collected together and the plastics collected separately. The recycling works well if everyone does it. I wish more people would use the food waste buckets and not put the waste in the black bags which attracts foxes/rats/cats who rip the bags and the rubbish then gets spilled all over the place. |
