Southwark - will they allow you order a bin for a neighbour?

[RoLo1]

Does anyone know if you can order a bin for a neighbouring house?

A few doors from my in-laws the tenants are overfilling their bin (to the point they can't close it), and on Sunday as I passed a man opened the front door and chucked his takeaway on the ground to join loads of other rubbish. It's a typical crowded ED terraced street, obviously rubbish and open bins are going to attract vermin - and surprise, surprise we've seen one and had to put traps down yesterday (obviously mice are going to be an ongoing problem if there are idiots who can't clean up after themselves).

I've looked on the Southwark website, and wondering if I can order as though it's for my own property (cloak and dagger approach)? Just don't want to explain the situation to Southwark and find they will only provide the bin to the property if the tenant/ owner requests it, in which case no-one can really do anything to fix it quickly... That's presuming there isn't the 8 week wait on bins there was at one point!

No they won't let you order one for a neighbour, technically, as I was told when I tried to do it a couple of years ago. When half way through the call I told them I'd mistakenly given them my own name incorrectly and I was actually my neighbour though they laughed and said OK and a bin was duly delivered. A very nice lady.

If you don't get her I guess you can just call back with a different voice on!
