Back on the hobby horse
I
forget how many times I have been around this loop but after seeing
the lamentable
performance of the refuse boss at Scrutiny this week I am not
expecting a solution any time soon.
Once again CountryStyle has failed to empty the paper bin that serves the flats
opposite my house but for the first time (including Serco) have left a note of the reason why.
It’s contaminated again; it is every week. What do they expect?
The bin
is left facing the wall so the access slot is out of reach,
flat
occupants wrench it open thereby destroying the hinge and removing the lock so
that the whole lid can be raised which in turn allows whole sackloads of rubbish to be thrown in.
Unlike an individual wheelie bin where its user can empty and rectify the
situation no one is going to do it where a block of flats is concerned so the
situation will remain as it is. Week after week the paper and cardboard
will pile ever higher whilst Bexley Council ignores the basic problem.
Due to
CountryStyle operatives’ carelessness, the
ten month old bin has been wrecked by the feckless, and no one at Bexley
Council is interested in anything other than allowing history to repeat itself.
Note: The bin was emptied on 1st April.
