Storage of Bins

The VA has received a number of complaints in relation to the storage of rubbish and recycling bins. In particular, that these are not being stored away tidily after bin collection day and are being left blocking pavements and, on occasion, left in the road. Please can we ask that bins are stored tidily, as soon as reasonably possible after bin collection day.

Please can we also ask that loose rubbish bags are not left out overnight before bin collection day and that food bins are either placed on top of the rubbish bin or the lid is well secured (perhaps by placing something heavy on top) to prevent foxes scavenging and leaving behind a mess that is unpleasant for all.
