woodmally Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 I cannot believe the Council are doing this. What the heck are they thinking? The only people to benefit from such a change is me and the wife. We dont drink that much and have no kids. Well possibly a few others like us. People with families wont have enough room. I cannot see why we need to change. The only good thing is we get rid of the blue box. Hurraahhh https://www.sheffield.gov.uk/bins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iansheff Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 (edited) Oh well the blue box will come in handy for the car for storing things in. Still got the old blue box from years and years ago. So the brown bin and the blue bin are both once a month collection, how big are the brown bins going to be, same size as the blue ones or bigger? Surely they will be bigger if only once a month collection, maybe the council could even start recycling aerosol cans.

cytine Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 I haven't got a blue bin, it was stolen as was the previous one. I am not paying for a replacement. So what do I do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moon Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 I don't ever remember being asked if I wanted to be unpaid labour for a private recycling company. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you are happy to move the bin to the pavement even though bin men get paid hansomly to move the bin two yards from the pavement to a little machine. I remember back in the day when bin men was real bin men and they carried the metal bin from your back yard to the van and back again. Now they get paid a lot more and do a lot less.
