I wrote to Bassam suggesting the equivalent volume of a wheelie in hessian sacks. Here is part of his reply:- This is indeed what I am planning to do as part of the roll out. Some residents may love to have a wheelie bin, a lot think the current system does the job fine & the old sacks were not what I would want to go back to. The plan is to offer everyone who signs up a wheelie bin or three hessian sacks. There are a few red route properties who currently & would continue to need to use the sacks, but I do appreciate that for most people it is the prospect of a wheelie bin that it's very off putting & I want to see as many people as possible sign up to this scheme. The alternative, as I said would have been two forced wheelie bins & fortnightly collections of waste & main recycling, which I do not believe is acceptable. |
