Could this also mean that grey bin emptying will be suspended too?
The LET news report said that Burnley and Colne facilities were closed too, but didn't say why.

I was turned away from there late this morning but was told that the Harwood site was open, which it was.

Good to see the caring "big society" is alive in Accy (unlike the poor sod on the tip)... main concern is will the bins be emptied. :alright: :rofl38::rofl38:

in all seriousness though if foul play is afoot i hope the swine or swines are caught because just dumping someone in a skip or wheelie bin is pretty cold.

Thats assuming he was dumped in a wheelie bin but from what i can make out it looks like he was dumped in burnley with rubbish into a skip and then the skip taken to landfill in accy.

if he was murdered it was a pretty big risk to take a body to the tip as they help you and at most tips inspect your rubbish to make sure its going into the correct skip.

There is a possibility he was a skip router after it closed and had an accident which would explain teh absence of signs of an attack :confused:
