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) ??

    • Disagree. Where are the police when you need them? People want a police presence, they want to feel reassured by seeing them do what the word suggests, policing, so go catch some bad guys, arrest, charge and get the CPS to prosecute with the evidence to enable this to happen. Stabbing and shootings are so common place they no longer even get reported in the public domain. How many crimes don't get solved? Rather case closed and forgotten. The number of low to high level crimes which remain unsolved is staggering.  The criminal fraternity know this, they know they won't get caught so they just carry on.  Biggest crimes which affect most people, probably are phone and car theft, both are prolific and what do the police do, diddly squat. zilch, nothing, provide a crime reference number and the case is closed. Not good enough, not by a country mile.   Met Engage? I don't think so.
    • https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/violent-crime-plunges-london-homicide-rate-b1247078.html Worth doing a little checking before making assumptions about violent crimes. Recent data suggests a drop in violent crime. Gang violence will make a significant contribution to the numbers. You are unlikely to be attacked by a stranger   
    • Unfortunately there are plenty of shops which don't care and will sell vapes, alcohol and weed to minors, I'm sure they won't care about selling them fireworks. Or the kids nick them.
    • It’s getting a bit annoying. We’ve a nervous dog who trembles when they go off. I know to expect it around Halloween and Diwali but it seems to be happening more through the year.
