I don't interfere anymore when these poor people go through our bin. I also 
don't consider taking my black bags of rubbish as stealing? ! I do go out and 
tell them they have to clean up and not make a mess. And they always stick to 
their word. It's a sad situation as is so I can't fight this. Talk to the 
"dumpster diggers" . You'll be amazed they listen if you talk to them with 
respect. Just try talking to them. They haven't got it easy either.

I suggest it thus better just to tip from bin to bin instead of using "plastic 
bags" Much better for the environment too! One may need to wash bins but hey 
whats that in terms of saving and pollution. Back to basics is better and 
cheaper.

Thank you Gareth - an idea, esp as all my refuse would be right at the bottom 
as I have so little.

Hi Rosemary,

We all have this problem from time to time.

What I resort to doing is emptying all the rubbish out of my black bag into the 
bin.

This makes it more difficult and unattractive for the skarelars to scratch in 
the bin.

Regards,

Gareth Leyman

Subject: [obsnw] refuse day/ recyclers

 

I appreciate I have broached this topic before but I am hoping for some 
constructive advice/ideas.

 

I put my refuse in clear little bags and then in a black refuse bag.  The black 
bag gets stolen and even my clear bags are ripped open leaving a ghastly mess 
both on the pavement and in the bin.  (Recycle 1st collects from me every 
Wednesday so there is nothing worthwhile in my bin). 

 

Much as I sympathise with those who eke out a living scratching in bins, I find 
the current behaviour unacceptable.

 

Any ideas people?
