Bin Trash
The recycling saga;
Cornwall has issued a set of containers to control waste disposal.
A Bin for non recyclables on ever decreasing size where anything outside the bin will not be collected. Ha! more fly-tipping then | Theft of and filling other properties bins
I had all my containers 'taken' temporarily only to find 5 of the 6 returned to what was imaginatively to ELF, the missing item being the food waste bin, a small 10Lt container.
Yesterday I returned to find the 'BIN' taken from the land and with a bag of 'WASTE' in it. I removed the bad and took the 'BIN' - home and marked it.
The BIN
The markings consist of a) a watermark of almost invisible ink b) sticky labels spelling ELF with c) permanent ink around the letters and d) letters in Braille via drilled holes.
The last time I left a 'bag' of rubbish was November 2023 and will now keep a diary.
Dragging a wheely-bin up 300m + stoney track is a) going to wreck it and it an added weight and pain ~ complaint lodged (Date:
Bottle Box
I have been putting out bottles for recycling maybe once every 6 weeks and occasionally more if I have someone staying for a while and drink more than a few bottles of alcoholic drinks. This BOX has the outlying sticker from which the letters were cut from the above and Brialle in the top edge.
2024
- August 28th: ¾ filled the box with bottles.
- July 30th: ¾ filled the red bag (plastics, lids etc.)
- June 19th: Filled the box with bottles from the last few months and some old jars and took in wheelbarrow.
Plastic Bag
I have used two types of marker pen to write the property name and fixed a copper rivet through the mysterious black 'Velcro like' band at the top of one edge.
