My question to them is where can I store the 4 bin bags over the 2 weeks so that the local cats don't rip them apart and we then have rats? the only answer I got was "take it to the tip yourself"

This is the kind of customer service we get for £1200 a year council tax!!!!

My fault as I missed the bin but they need a proper procedure for if people don't get there bin emptied, they expect people to wait 4 weeks for there bins to be emptied is stupid.
Not wishing to sound critical but what would happen if everybody were 10 minutes late putting their bins out
