florence kat Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 This got onto the wrong topic - about bananas.... In the alley way between our house and the next, there has appeared a single-bed base in two halves, dumped since yesterday evening. If it is not removed fairly soon, people will think this is a dumping site and add to it. [As it happens, this alley is not used, but that's not the point.] Through which official channels (council? Veolia?) can I successfully get this removed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EmmaJones76 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 Council switchboard, 01142734567, press the option to go through to Veolia, job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
florence kat Posted January 26, 2018 Author Share Posted January 26, 2018 Thank you both for suggestions. I have now tried fixmystreet, (which should pass my request onto the council. If case, I'll try Veolia on the Town Hall switchboard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penistone999 Posted January 26, 2018 Share Posted January 26, 2018 If the council didnt ban large vans from using the dumps , this sort of thing wouldnt happen . Now the council will have to spend money clearing up the mess. False economy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because I'm not a professional rubbish producer, a few years back I had a bed base I needed shifting so I took a saw to it and it went in the black bin over a couple of weeks.

Which means we subsidise their business through our taxes. That's not what I want my council taxes spent on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which means we subsidise their business through our taxes. That's not what I want my council taxes spent on. Builders already use the dumps. They arnt daft. you see them taking the rubbish in in estate cars or 4x4`s. Why do you think the rubble skips get full ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
