Good Friday is a strange day. It is a bank holiday yet the shops are open, some work in industry, some dont. When I was younger the only shops open were wet fish shops as everybody ate fish on Good Friday, but I digress.

My wheelie bin collection is Friday, and everybody along the normal Friday route have their bins ready for collection. Now I understand that the Friday collection was completed yesterday, Thursday. If this is correct then I have spoken to people and none have had notification. If, by any chance, it was in the Star myself, and others are not regular Star readers.Perhaps somebody from Onyx could clarify.

While we are on the subject, walk thru the bottom end of Crookes and note the number of blue bins left out for collection, a collection that never seems to arrive. I have had mine out over and over with no collection. Perhaps somebody from Onyx can also clarify the collection dates this year for these.

On a kind of related subject - my bin should be emptied on Monday. Does anyone know when they'll come for it? :suspect:

Perhaps you're supposed to put two bins out next Monday ? :D

Seriously...in this area they usually clear the bin and any overflow in plastic bags the following Monday.

Bin collection is supposed to be as normal.

They've just collected mine!

Andy/Bruce: if you are still unsure call 273 4567 and press 1 when requested. The Onyx staff are on duty and will answer your call.

I have just returned from taking dog out and wheelie bins have been emptied, they are usually here about 6 30am hence the first entry.

Our black bin should be emptied Thursday. Missed again. Wife phoned Onyx-----coming Good Friday.

Friday & Monday collections as normal.

Onyx advert in Thurs Star (?)

You said that the collections in Sheffield are rubbish. I happen to think they are rather good.
