Let's just say one thing

If you report miss collection

The crew that does the round gets the message on their on-board computer

- Yes they do have them - trucls are fitted GPS and they are also able to tell every time that the truck stops and how long for

Every truck is fitted with cctv 4 cameras on each side for evidence

...

What I'm trying to say is

Every truck has pre programmed route

And time and unless there is no obstructions

They work like a Swiss watch

(If the truck can't get in , they can't get in)

If your bin is not beeing emptied on the day and time when it usually is

Then you need to ask yourself 2 questions

1) is there access

2) is my bin out

- Oh yeah

They are paid to collect bins that are out

Not inside your front garden

Speak to the council and ask if the collection is from the property (garden is your private property)

Or from outside the property

(I'm sure it's outside - otherwise council would be sued for millions in damages to grass , slabs , gates etc)

-

My point is

Get your bin out

And boys will empty it

I live in a block of 6 flats at the junction of Landcroft/Pellatt Roads - we have a communal 4 wheeled ie large bin


which was last collected on May 21st, next collection was due 4th June.


I have reported the missed collection last week and again today - and the occupant of another flat has reported it at least twice.


From the Southwark website: - Missed Collection Order Completed

Thank you for your report of a missed waste collection. This will be investigated and actioned within 2 working days.

Your reference number is MIS-21483


Does anyone know if any of our local councillors are worth contacting about this (or even Helen Hayes MP) ??

    • Yes, I did mention the train, which I now get from East Dulwich to Guys instead of the 40. Depends where in East Dulwich you are starting from which route is easiest! I think it is probably lack of staff rather than lack of hospitals which is the problem?
    • What can be done? How about reporting it to the police? 
    • I can also strongly recommend Lukasz after he completed some floorboard repairs and some complex repairs to skirting damaged through dog chews. He is responsive, punctual, reasonably priced, detail-oriented and his work is to a very high standard. 
    • Really? Yes you are probably right as I know from personal experience with Guys… as I claiming travel costs back, that no one told me I could claim! Left hand does not know what right hand is doing regarding admin..  If they charged people for wasting overstretched staff in A& E as in not urgent just might deter people from wasting precious time…. But then you need interpreters, to explain if language is a barrier and admin staff to administer..  Correct me if I am wrong but is there not a train from Denmark Hill or East Dulwich which goes to London Bridge? Would be faster than 2 buses I would have thought.    Oh, forgot about Tessa Jowell but thought you needed GP referral in which case, that would be the place to go rather than a bigger hospital. Know there is one in Beckenham and you can call and they will give you an idea as to wait time…..same I hope at TJ…assuming they answer phone.. If one really things about it…too many  people in London for example and to few hospitals…
