My green wheelie bin has disappeared from in front of my house. Only a few people in our street have painted their mumber on their bin, and my bin looks the same as all the other un-numbered ones, so I can't say for sure that it has just ended up next door... anyway, will Southwark Council charge me for a new one?


Thanks.

They won't as long as you haven't asked for a wheelie bin recently. Our recycling boxes and bags all disappeared last week for the second time and I did get an email asking me to explain why I was requesting further replacements, but they did provide them quickly after that.

The Bin Men have a habit of only 'Lifting every 3rd / 4th bin.

or dragging your bin half way up the road. You don't know where it will end up.


Last week the Bin Men Left my Wheelie Bin with one of the wheels off.


I Bent down and put the wheel back on only to find the axle was outside the bin frame.

Tried prising the wheel off so I could locate it properly. Nothing would budge it.


Called Southwark Council yesterday morning. New Bin was delivered this morning.


Good Service

    • I've noticed the foxes are very frisky at the moment, it's mating season. Perhaps it was a male fox who saw you as a danger to his vixen and wanted to see you off.
    • I’m not sure how many other people have experienced this; but both me and one of my friends have the same story. Around Crawthew Grove and Crystal Palace Road: I was followed by a large fox right on my heel. At first I didn’t notice because I had my headphones on, but then I noticed my shadow had an extra lump in it, funnily enough, it was a fox, very very close to my feet. Even if I sped up walking it just tried to get closer - it was quite frightening actually, it was quite clear that it wanted to nip me. I didn’t know what to do so, I started to reprimand the fox and walked slowly away from it, facing it - which it didn’t seem to like and backed off a bit. I then proceeded to speed-walk away.   Quite frankly, the whole situation was quite embarrassing and a little bit frightful as I’d never had a fox even come up to me. I’ve heard of particularly curious foxes that might come up to someone who beckons them, and maybe even bite that person, but I’ve never heard of a fox chasing someone. The amount of confidence that it had was incredible.    When it happened, I was on the way to see some friends, and once I had told one of them, she told me the same thing happened to her.  if anyone else knows anything about this bitey fox then let me know!
    • Another recommendation for Andy. I needed an old kitchen removed as an emergency. Andy came over quickly and did a fantastic job. I have used Andy a few times. He is punctual, helpful and always does an  excellent job.
