Our local council has proposed to switch our general waste bin from weekly to fortnightly - and our green bin from fortnightly to weekly.
If people do t like it they can opt out and revert to the old system.
A clean green switch right?!
Anyone would think they have proposed to switch off our water for a month judging by the social media response.
I'm certain this isn't in line with general community opinions... am I right??

My family (3) have just under two small shopping bags worth of rubbish in just 2 weeks. I'd actually love if the recycling bin went more often

I suppose it does save the council on fuel.... will rates decrease along with it? :P
The most green solution is to have large underground bins at the end of each street. Each household can walk an extra 50m to put it in the shared bins like they do in Europe.
It will save hundreds of thousands in collection costs and there can be sensors in the underground chambers to only collect when they are getting full.
