Are you aware of how much of your Council tax is actually spent on waste collection? and how much waste collection actually costs?
I can tell you it is probably costing you about 30-50pence per week. Now why is everyone always moaning about value for money? Even if you got it collected once a month it's value for money at that price.
I am paying for schools and libraries that i don't use - what am i supposed to do about that??
I work in this industry and i honestly think that people are blowing it out of all proportion. I have not seen a single maggot where i live - I am quite happy with alternate weekly collections. Don't buy stuff in plastic packaging if it is such a problem!
