Wise Old Thumper
I live in a small house now & not happy about the amount of bins I have crowding the front of the house or my back yard, esp now I have a massive green garden one for rabbit hay & poo. Our council offers a swap service (280 litre bins can be swapped for 140 ltre bins) & they do just collect stuff (piles of cardboard, stray black bin liners, plastic recycling in whatever container you choose).
So I was thinking of swapping the general waste for a half size which would allow it to sit alongside the big green bin. I could then put a willow screen in front of them so they didn't look too unsightly & cos they'd be smaller they wouldn't be visible from lounge window. The brown bin (recycle) I reckon could be replaced by a plastic storage box. Now the council won't remove a bin but I was thinking it would actually be quite handy to keep my hay bale in. My hay is kept in the bunny cupboard but it does get everywhere & ventures out on to the kitchen floor so containing it would be a positive move.
Current brown bin is the 280 litre but if I swapped it for 140 do you reckon I'd get a bale in there? I'm also hoping the swap would result in a new fresh bin & not climbing inside existing bin to scrub it clean
Sorry for extremely boring post!
