I've got a standard bin, and we've just had a baby, I change on average 60-70 nappies per week, and this is 120-140 every other week, this is filling up my bin considerably, I also have two house rabbits, they are litter trained, and their litter boxes are emptied every day, this is about a half to 3/4's of carrier bag, once all the food dishes are also emptied into it (cabbage stalks carrot ends etc) this is filling up my bin to the point where I have not a lot of space for no recyclable rubbish. i've just rang HBC and ask if I could temporarily have a larger bin. As we are frequenting the tip/landfill quite a bit with bin bags full of non recyclable rubbish. They said only houses with quite a lot of people in get a bigger bin, I explained the above and she said she couldn't help, I have no room for a compost bin, or an appropriate place to put one (they have no bottoms on apparently) and the green bins are not offered to homes without a considerable garden space. I want to recycle my rabbit rubbish, its all fully compostable and I think it will enable me to use my regular bin without having to go to the landfill. She basically said she couldn't help me and I could go to the landfill to put my rabbit litter on the garden waste, but I pay my council tax so is there nothing I can have to enable this? Seems a bit unfair that there is no solution? Please help?
