White Sack - Gone again
 

O M G !!!!

This is ridiculous. Forth time in a row we have had our white recycling sack stolen. I AM Not happy. Is this happening to anybody else? Especially in the peel area???

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

They'll nick anything round here, happened to me a few times. Just nip to Town Hall and ask for another, maybe tell them it's a regular thang?

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

We had a spate of the blue uns nicked last year. Last time went Town Hall, they said they stopped keeping em n sent us up Willows Lane.:(

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

That's just it. Working away at long hours I can't get to them to get another white sack. Last few times; I have managed to get away from work because it wasn't busy and/or shorter hours :(

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

Try ringing em n telling em of yer problem, it may work yeh never know.

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

It happened to me with my recycle bins, so often when living in Preston, that I gave up in the end and just took stuff to the recycle place myself. If it wasn't stolen it was idiots knocking it over or hiding it or filling it with their own rubbish.

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

Let me know if you've a problem getting one. The Council needs a better system when leaving these sacks.

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

Don't the refuse collectors have spare sacks on their trucks?

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

I spent 45 minutes drawing big massive numbers on the white sack and it still went. :(

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

No i once asked when our blue un vanished, But thats no use anyway if yer at work or not in.

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

Aye mine have been going missing in the past few weeks, today I got lucky and they were still there.

There is no point saying anything at the Town Hall as they dont seem bothered, when I told the woman behind the counter about mine keep going her reply were that I can always come into the Town Hall and get another and then told me the opening times??!!

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

Ditto :(

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

I didnt say anything at the time as I were so shocked that were the reply I got.

When I now go in I always ask for 3 of each colour, when they ask why I tell em its because I dont want to come in here every 2 weeks for new ones.

Its gonna get worse now that winter is coming as any bit of wind will take them half a mile up the street if you dont take em in your house straight away.

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

the blue sack was placed between the door handle. Whoever took it perhaps they didn't want the blue sack :confused:

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

Yeah mine were today.

They usually chuck them back in the front garden so when I pick them up there is usually about 26 slugs all over it!

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

well you've narrowed down the list of suspects you only need to check the houses that have the same number as you.:)

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

eewwww shiver. There is no front garden here. Instead the slugs enjoy our bin in the backyard. Oh somehow they get in the bathroom. No trails as to how they get in??


haha good point. In a fortnight perhaps I shall have a walk around. That's if they put it out before I have set off for work

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

When mine go missing It's usually because the Refuge Disposal Officers have put them back in the wrong place:eek:Inadvertently.:D:D

Should I apply for a position at the Diplomatic Corps??:hehetable

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

Our new white one disapeared and an old one left in it's place - asked all the neighbours - no joy. Binmen here are pretty gpood, bags are always left inside the upturned bottle box.

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

Think my white sack has gone missing twice in the last two years and I just ring HBC up and they send one through the post

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

Same here, but usually about 3 or 4 houses away.
:)

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

I've got a couple of old white sacks that need recycling but I don't know where to put them.:confused::confused::D:D

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

Ya don't really want an answer to that do ya Beni:D

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

ive got a paper wheely bin ... so dont need to bother with the sacks now .. and always have had a blue recycling wheely bin ... since they brought em in ....

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

:DDoes it not go all soggy when it rains, being made of paper!!!!:D:D:D

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

maybe they blow away?

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

I can accept that the might blow away. But two weeks or in the summer with no reported wind?

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

Rob, just dawned on me, I have a new spare white sack, I ended up getting 2 of each when they changed them. You are more than welcome to it.

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

An you think the neighbour who has got a new white bag instead of the old tatty one, is going to own up and do a swop.

Re: White Sack - Gone again
 

I read that yesterday n couldn't respond fer laughing.:D:hehetable
