The rest is lawned and has to be kept clear for mowing access.

The other 3 residents park theirs at the back door, but until recently, mine was parked at the front. (I did that because it involved dragging it a shorter distance to the collection point at the property boundary). I moved it to the back next to the others last week because I was sick of people using it as a dog poo bin.

So now the parking area is full - where will extra bins go? - directly under the kitchen windows of the ground floor residents - I can see that going down well
Margaret , in my complex we have a dumpster for general garbage and bins for re-cyclables (paper/plastic) both are picked up and emptied on the same day by the same truck , one lot goes into the compactor at the back and the other stuff is tipped into the sides , and the garbage-men seem to have no problem wheeling the tubs/bins from the covered storage area into alignment for the truck and then returning them back to original situ .......it's what they are paid for ...isn't it ?
