Do you get through a lot of white goods if you're a council tennent? And if you can get them off your property can't you get them to a tip?

£60 is a bit of a con though.

No, it is not. If you're a council tenant then it's a tenner for 1-3 items.

It would be if it was. It isn't though so it isn't. Quite reasonable costs actually.

I swear to god, when I asked for an item to be collected she kept on about - If I've already had my one collection already it would cost me £60.00 per Item, she mentioned this not once, but three times during our conversation until I told her " Listen I have not had a previous collection"

I've got a double bed here I want shifting, If it's only a tenner It will be gone this week.

Just as a matter of interest how much does it cost for garages/tyre fitters to legitimately get rid of worn tyres.

Seems to be a popular item for dumping.The latest lot dumped in the car park at Loxley Common.

Is this the reason so many council houses have got mattresses+chairs +cabinets etc.in their front garden? Do they save them up until its worth ringing for a free collection every 12 months?

Yay! It seems SYP and the 'Sheffield Star' have just discovered this "new online reporting service", http://www.fixmystreet.com.

Don't get me wrong – I think that's great – but, unless I'm hallucinating, I'm sure I've been using the same service for the past decade.

Me too regularly ...................

I thought there are signs up there in some places warning of £50.000 maximum fine for fly tipping. It be worth while to properly investigate any littering up wincobank area.

It will be interesting to see if there are prosecutions after this posting on the Thorpe Hesley and Scholes F/B page

"The disgusting humans who drive a big scruffy red van with the reg SKZ 2644 have dumped 3 separate loads of rubble, take away rubbish and hundreds of take away menus since 3pm Thursday."

The flyers of which there are considerable number relate to The Pizza House Tel
