Again, will point out that we do have weekly collections .. just split into two types that is all.

The grumble appears to be that it is the food rotting that will attract rats and maggots.. but, honestly, most people with any sense will wrap up the excess food in various packaging before putting in the bin; I wrap in newspaper, then in a small plastic bag and then in my black bin bag.

Attachment 18518 Could try this sticker..
It isn't difficult for us Kate either, there is only me and him , but there are families in the street for whom the present system doesn't quite fit
They recycle as much as they can but yet the bin for non recyclabale stuff is full to overflowing long before the bin man comes.......so we donate our free bin space,as does the pensioner next door to us.....being neighbourly.
