Recycling items dumped in my rubbish bin pe**** me off

At least they're using a bin. Round here they pick it uia bag then throw it in a tree.

Nothing to identify. That reminds me many years ago a work colleague had bags of rubbish dumped at the bottom of his drive in a rural area., and managed to get the car registration number. As he was a member of the Masons he had a chum in the police who looked it up and gave home the name and address. He then bagged it all up and drove with it to the perpetrator’s house where he emptied all the bags out on the driveway. When the householder came out he just told him he was returning his property as he didn’t want it.

My recycling and rubbish bins were emptied on Friday. Today I went to bring them in. Some low life had emptied a load of stuff into the bottom of my bin, coke cans, glass bottles, crisps packets, some metal canister covered in mud and an empty plastic pill holder. The bin is tall so I had to empty it in the road and pick it all up - a disgusting job. Whoever it was just stopped and cleared out their car. Why couldn’t they have taken it home, put it in a bag in the bin, or put it in the correct recycle bin? The latter would still have annoyed me but at least I wouldn’t have had to touch it. What is the matter with some people?

Nothing with a name or address on amongst all the rubbish. ?

May have posted on this before. Had this problem myself. Local Council classed this as fly tipping.

My bin was being used to dump mounds of dirty stinking shitty babys nappies. And takeaway food waste and cartons from a local kebab takeaway

Have now got my bin in a neighbours out house house under lock and key.

Before that as temporary measure.l used chains and a padlock to lock my bin up.. Worked a treat.

Yes, bin dumper people are low life scum .
They couldn't care less

At least folk are putting their rubbish in your bin
We have a wide splay on quite a busy road. I sware people pull in and chuck rubbish out of their car. It made me think if I pit a bin up there if it might be used. It would be better than all the rubbish that gets blown down our drive

Avalon,to throw the tied up bags of dog poo in a skip isn't on either,we hired a skip and the same night before we had chance to put anything in a lady walking her dog threw a bag of poo in,caught her clear as day on the ring doorbell,skip was on our driveway.

Or , as I find, every time I trim the hedge....dog poo bags pushed into the branches - not even in a bin. It disgusts me. And more than that, some people seem to think it's ok to throw empty cans and beer bottles and crisps packets and takeaway cartons into the garden too. Every gardening session begins with a clean up. What's wrong with people?

Where I live everyone leaves their bins on the path permanently you can't even past some of them. No chance for a pram or mobility scooter. Passing people stick all sorts in their bins. Mine are a little way off the pavement and I can see them from my kitchen window

You should get on to your council and demand that they put a dog waste bin at every entry point into the park.
Perhaps get your neighbours to sign a petition and harass your local councillors as well until it is sorted.
Good luck.

We actually have dog waste bins at entry and exit points to the park. But some people obviously are not prepared to walk back to use them if their doggy poops on the street, then is just easier to dump it in the nearest bin in front of somebody’s house.

Only today I brought in my recycling bin which was emptied this morning and found it had a large pile of newspapers and some dirty takeaway containers in it! I had to tip everything out then put the papers back in and the takeaway containers in the general waste bin as they only recycle clean plastic! I once opened my garden waste bin to see if it had been emptied and found a dog poo bag on top of the garden waste! If I hadn't checked either the bin would have been left or if not the waste would have been contaminated!
I live by a scchool so am used to people putting stuff in my bins but it is better since I retired as they are taken in sooner. I once had an unwrapped babies nappy left in my bin. I left it as it would be emptied the next week but by then it had stuck to the bottom and remained the following week after emptying. I had to poke it with a stick to get it out, then wrap it before putting it in again! Some people are just disgusting!
If I walk my son's dog I either put the poo bag in a public bin or take it back to their house to their bin. It's not rocket science!

Warning:

Never order a skip. It fills up before you've had a chance to get rid of your own waste stuff!

I get this all the time as I live on the high street.

Coffee cups and half a pizza dumped on my paper recycling so the men wouldn't lift it.

Half filled lager cans in the glass bottle box.

I have to bring out the bin just before the bin lorry comes.

Now I have an old mattress of mine I want to dispose of and don't know how as no-one will collect it and I can't lift it, it won't fit in the car, is now soaking wet and birds are taking the horsehair innards for their nests. At least I think it's birds.....!

It's not out on the pavement yet. It's behind the house.

Is so annoying. And would love to be able to tuck my bins away but the little alleyway between our property and some flats next door is taken over by the countless bins used by the flats. So we only have a pocket handkerchief in front of the house, and is easy for people to access our bins. We have three and they are so enormous, a neighbour two doors up couldn’t get her mobility scooter out because of her bins, she tried to sort it out with the council but no joy, eventually her son took two bins away and left her with the black one so she doesn’t recycle but just puts all her refuse into black sacks in the black bin.

Dog poo in my bin quite regularly. General picnic rubbish in my green bin therefore not emptied by bin men.
Tins in my glass box.
Sometimes I wonder why I bother.

Our council started charging for garden waste, I live near the tip so take mine and my neighbours there. Took me months to get the council to remove the green wheelie bin. I didn't have room for it in my garden

My bet is that it's the builders dumping their rubbish in the bin.

Also how will you get rid of the old bins? The council won’t usually take them and you end up having to drive to the tip yourself to get rid of them.

and now the councils are talking about renewing bins, we wont have the recycle bins,I think we're getting 4 new bins and a list of what you can and can't put in them, if you put something in thats not allowed they can fine you £400, we'll see. what's to stop other folk from puting rubbish in your bin. don't know who thought that one up

Quite true. I should have brought the bin in immediately but it was chucking it with rain. All my bins usually come in and go behind the garage. When they are out they are stood on my wide driveway so are always on my property and not blocking the pavement. They go out the night before collection but recycling is collected by a separate vehicle from the black ordinary rubbish. My bin has been left with mud all down the insides as well.

I have a dog but wouldn’t dream of putting a poo bag in someone’s bin although I have been known to throw it(tied) into a skip.

Someone filled my general waste bin with a lot of well used mens clothes .

This would annoy anyone, wouldn't it? why would someone even think it was ok?

I am always shocked at what people leave around bottle banks and clothes banks. It is as though they are an advert for antisocial littering of unwanted items

I appreciate that it’s annoying when someone uses our refuse bins but aren’t they supposed to be brought in on the day that they are emptied? We would be fined by our council if we left them out for two days!

Unfortunately space is at a premium on the road we live on so there is nowhere to safely stow our bins away. Though our SiL has suggested getting a large wooden low shed like structure at the front of the house locked with a padlock. Some people do have these for bikes etc. So we might have to do that but will take up much of the space in front of our property.

AuntieE my bins are by my back gate in an alleyway which the lorry comes down, so my bins live outside my back yard as do everyone else’s in my area. there are also people whose back yard/garden has been made into parking spaces or a garage.
We don’t put them out on the pavement everyones situation is different My daughter has a small unused grass alley at the end of their block so all the bins live there otherwise they would have to come through their front door and hallway and right through the house to the back garden
