Update to Post:Bins not collected, Council Ref: GE/361358 [[6166499]]

The council assured me they would collect the bin today. Here’s a reply I got from them (I’ve only screenshot the main body of text to avoid anyone being identified inadvertently)

And, of course. This is the state of our bin at 7:30pm (ish)

I had to put another bag of rubbish in the bin.

Bins not collected, Council Ref: GE/361358 [[6166499]]

The Bin in front of the house
Three houses up the Road, The Hair Salon (77, not 73A)
The Hair salon from across the road. I’m not complaining about their bin not being collected.
The Bin outside 73A again. This is the one I’m complaining about. The eagle-eyed amongst you will spot two other bins behind it. Those have been emptied.
Apparently this is the evidence that the bin wasn’t presented properly. I mean…. what?

Bin date: 22 April 2024

Bins for collection on Monday, 22 April 2024… put out for collection on the evening of 21 April 2024:

1 x Glass, metal and plastics

1 x Garden Waste (fingers crossed they take it this time; it was not collected on 8 April because apparently it wasn’t ‘presented’! Maybe the garden waste bin has an invisibility mode?)

Garden waste interior – looks pretty plant-y to me!

Garden waste lid down – lid sits flat, no bulging!! Handle towards the road to make it easier for the collectors to grab!

Metal, glass and plastic bin joins the party at the curb…

And just in case there’s any question about when the photos are from… here’s a screen shot of one of the emails with the attachments.
