I have been watching
this bin since it was delivered by Serco several years ago.
The hinge was damaged soon after
delivery and because of that the lid cannot be locked.
Useful for taking large boxes but also an open
invitation to fly tippers and irresponsible residents.
The cost to the Council of dealing with contaminated bins over the years must have vastly
exceeded the cost of mending or replacing the old one but they employ no one bright enough to recognize that.
After being
left unemptied for weeks the cardboard was collected at the end of
October and rapidly filled with Amazon boxes again. Yesterday someone thought it
was the ideal receptacle for debris from a refurbished bathrooom. Massive thick
broken tiles and a few plumbing items.
There are some disgusting people around and there are a couple of beds in Abbey
Road if anyone is interested.
