Taken from hyndburns website:
Unfortunately, there are still quite a number of residents leaving black sacks in the back streets. For improvements to be made in the cleanliness of your area, all household waste must be presented within the grey wheeled bin.
Enforcement action will be taken against residents who do not present their waste in the wheeled bin. If you dump sacks in the back street, you can be served a notice under section 46 of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 which can lead to fines of up to £1,000 .
