James I am not sure where you got the evidence about collections occurring on Xmas Day and other public holidays, since seems most unlikely? On the later collections occurring pre Xmas, our street has suffered some of the different collection units being a day late (remembering that your rubbish gets collected by different teams and trucks) but they have all finally turned up pre Xmas. The reasons given in talking to them has been a mix of bad roads inevitably plus sheer overload of stuff being collected (especially the bottle and food recycling smaller sized truck) so maybe our own consumption levels personal are indirectly a factor! On a related point, we have always given Xmas tips to the different collection teams since we believe they do an excellent job all year around. My wife was very surprised to be told by some of the guys this time that they in recent years get hardly any such tips - has the world really changed so dramatically on this issue in relation to this group of workers? |
