The rubbish collectors stack all the green bags in a pile in oneplace and then throw them into the truck with no care or cleanup when items fall out. They leave the streets full of rubbish on. Regular basis. They se to be in such a hurry to finish!

Updates

  • I ended cleaning this up myself as rubbish all over the street just encourages more littering as the area is already awash with detritus!.

    I have done this several times lately! Our street cleaner spends more time on his mobile and sitting on the kerb than he does cleaning the streets he is paid to.clean. Rubbish collectors same they need to clean up any mess left by bags thats the job “remove household garbage” not leave on the streets” and I pay a hefty council tax for the privilege and end up doing it myself as well. How is that acceptable from your employers? .
