Thankfully I live in South Glos literally 100m from the Bristol council boundary

Thing is both councils do recycling on a weekly collection and black bin fortnightly. If they want to save money they should just make recycling fortnightly rather than messing with black bins. There's already so much crap littered and dumped in the city

Ours here in Wales have reduced to black collection every 3 weeks (such an annoying time to try keep track of) and we’re no longer allowed to put the black bags in the bins, we have to put them in the street as just bags for collection day.

Can’t wait for summer and the seagulls to rip it all open and the streets be covered in crap.

That seems bizarre, people could just dump as many black bags as they want then?

We’re classed under the Rhondda Cynon Taf council.

We went from having black bag collections every week to fortnightly, to now having f every 3 weeks (which is a pain to try remember when they are collecting.

Our recycling is still weekly collections.
