My other half was wondering why there are no green wheelie bins in communal areas such as flats. I WONDER why that might be ? :rolleyes:

It seems to me that the TRUE reason for the green wheelie bins (recycle bins) is to fine people (taxation) who put the wrong type of item in each bin. It's part of the global warming scam. It means that we will live in FEAR of making a mistake. Also we may likely begin to distrust our neighbours because we become paranoid that they have put THEIR stuff in OUR bin.

So maybe the reason that flats dont get wheelie bins is that no-one can be held accountable cos it is a communal area. If the true reason for those green wheelie bins IS for recycling then the flats would have them too IMO.

Having said all that, it wouldnt surprise me in the near future if they held people in flats accountable for those bins by installing CCTV around the bin area so that they could watch what we put in them.

We have 'em. Only one for maybe 10 flats though.

We have a communal bin, about 3x2metres with a lid. This gets used by the entire village... and anyone else who happens to drive by with a boot-load of rubbish.

This whole affair is ridiculous.

In Malvern I now need a permit ( ticket ) so that i can use the tip... the printer is on a good earner and it wastes loads of paper and my time getting permits for household rubbish..... also the binman has to put sticky lables on thing that have been put in the wrong colour bag, then after putting sticky lables all over the bag puts into the land fill side of the lorry,,,, once again the printer is making loads of money... and these lables never get seen and the bags end up in the landfill..... all sounds a waste of good money... aslo if they wish us to recycle for the good of the plantet, should it not be free so that people do it...... not tax us into there way of thinking costing the tax payers millions..... it all seems alittle like common purpose messing in the waste industry...
