extra rubbish collection over xmas

Hiya, just to pass on that the council will be doing a one-off special uplift of bags beside bins with wheelie bin collections between 26th Dec and 6th Jan - think ours is the 29th

just to warn you all - that extra collection between xmas and hogmanay......
I have it on good authority, only black bags and wheelie bins will be collected. Extra waste not in a black bag will not be uplifted. So if you have any large cardboad boxes or whatever, squash them up and put them in black bags.

:roll:

I'm beginning to think you're right! There seems to be some disparity in what can and can't be put into the white bag.

what can I say? personally i think they make it up as they go along lol

Oops

That was me replying above.

Xmas cards

Really? That's bizarre considering they say magazines are ok. I don't understand! :roll:

apparently "they are not suitable for the reprocessors we use."

Xmas cards

Why can't you just put the xmas cards in the paper recycling bag?

Thats mighty white of them :roll:

So for xmas cards we have to either go into the centre of town to WHSmith - oh or Banchory! Or trail to the other side of Aberdeen to Tesco or to the one at Inverurie - gosh thats handy!
