Why are we having glass collection bins forced on us? This should be a user pays service. I, like many other people, take all our recycling to the transfer station.

I have put in a complaint to the council. They don't want to listen. I have rental properties and the lady I spoke to asked could I put their rent up to cover the cost. My tenants don't want the bins either.

I have a friend who has their wheelie bin collected at their door because they are not able to take it to the gate. They live in a cul-de-sac and have been informed the glass recycling bin will have to be put on the footpath of the street at the entrance to their cul-de-sac because they truck will not be able to go into the cul-de-sac. So the bin is useless to them. There are probably many other people in this situation.

None of the councillors will be getting my vote in the next election.
