At the moment a little jobsworth sneaks around with the official bin rooter to see what you have. As this is random they get all bins out by 07:30 so that no one knows the target area. The council does not trust modern technology so relies on legs and eyes.
It seems as though the binmen want an easy job but as was remarked earlier it does not take the older people or the frail into account. I was under the impression that in some areas the rubbish has to be split ino the normal and recycleable which is lifted on a rota basis of every 2 weeks or is it 3.
