Problem with the delivery of wheelie bins
What is affected?
UPDATE
30th June 2008 :
All
of those properties in Adur due to receive wheelie bins will be getting their
refuse bins
BUT
some households expecting a standard size
(140 Litre) and (240
litre) blue lidded recycling wheelie bin will have their delivery delayed
until August.
All households affected by this temporary change have
also been advised by a letter.
For more information see :
- UPDATE 4th July 2008 : News release 08/055 : Missing wheelie bins on their way
- AWS website (www.aws.gov.uk)
If
you ARE affected by the delivery problems we will continue to collect
recycling weekly until your new wheelie bin is delivered. You should continue
to use your existing blue recycling box.
We apologise for this problem.
What is not affected?
Delivery of the large blue lidded recycling wheelie bins (240 Litre) have not been affected. Delivery of the small and large grey lidded refuse wheelie bins have also not been affected.
And when I get my new recycling bin?
When
your new blue lidded recycling wheelie bin is delivered, recycling will become
fortnightly and will be collected from the new blue lidded wheelie bin.
For all other areas of Adur not listed below in the second phase of the service's roll out, your recycling will be collected in your new recycling wheelie bin on a fortnightly basis as planned.
