anyone seen any binmen????
my bin seems to be overflowing with tinsel and turkey
gettin a bit desperate now.
how come people can get out of their houses to go to the shops to panic buy things like bread and milk but they say its to dangerous to come down your street.........
even the household tip are bloody shut

sorry rant over..

would you drive one of them big vehicles around the back streets of warrington?? i know i wouldnt

They have to grit the roads first so they can get down them ,I for one have not seen a gritter out yet and the roads around Warrington do not look like anyone has gritted anything , the council stated they were prioritizing schools and main roads , my question is when are they starting there is no evidence of anything happening !
I will take my own rubbish to the tip if I have to but you have to be able to get to the tip , Our council are a joke !

Come April again, our council tax will go up. What for ?

I may be able to come to the assistance of you fellows.

Apparently, in the old days, they used to have something called 'BIN BAGS'...that's 'BIN BAGS'....I understand you can obtain these from most general stores or supermarkets.

With these bin bags you can, so I believe, put your excess waste into them (I think the clue is in the name?), and when they are full, you can tie them up and put them in a suitable location like your back yard or back garden.

Whilst you are doing this you can also be checking Warrington Council's website....Yes, apparently they do have one....and this website will keep you informed of when you can expect to see a refuse collector in your area.

Now the important bit....When the refuse collector is due, simply put your collected 'bin bags' next to your wheelie bin and, lo and behold, your rubbish will be collected.

I appreciate that this operation will require intiative and, most importantly, common sense on the individual's behalf, but with a little patience it will all be relatively painless.

to top up councillors pension fund....certainly not for our benefit

i am at present using my green bin to store my excess baggage and hope to see my refuse collectors before the end of next week.

You don't honestly believe that, do you?

Course he does.....That's the type of rubbish you hear spoke on the South stand terrace most Sunday afternnons during the summer...

All well and good but when the bags have been left out,for so many weeks and rats and foxes are feasting on your left over scraps.You will be the 1st to complain

Woolston tip is open i should i have made serveral trips.

No, I won't....I may be slightly miffed at the inconvenience at having to clear up the mess, but I won't start crying like some on here, who seem to want the whole world to sort out every little problem they seem to have.

Yes, not having your bins emptied may be inconvenient, but it isn't the end of the world...As I pointed out before, a little intiative and less whinging might just make your lives a little easier all round, for everybody.

They haven't gritted a single road in Warrington. I've been on most of the main roads through town and there isn't a drop of it anywhere. They admitted as much to my Father in law when he went to get grit for his drive and road because he has a disabled son in a wheelchair. Lazy fookers.

The bins aren't as critical as you should really by now have taken you excess rubbish to the tip in Woolston. I made two trips there with unrecyclable stuff and about seven to the cardboard and bottle recycling facility in the Jolly Falstaff car park. Yet you see all the lazy fools with cardboard piled up around their bins.

well whats your slant on this topic..you think everything in lifes rosey...tell me what we get out of paying stupid monthly amounts on council tax...

surely safety is paramount and if that means waiting for the bins to be done then thats fine by me.
