Here in Bedworth we have had -green bin for garden waste,
black for-up to now -anything else ,
red box with no lid for papers, shoes, car batteries (only one at a time).glass
Now we also have:
reusable blue bag for-paper.
reusable yellow bag forcardboard,
white sack-textiles,
orange sack off roll for plastics.

The first collection of the bags was last week. I drove to town in the afternoon.,,it was windy and most of the empty -reusable bags were blowing in the wind along Newtown Road, into gardens, the road, and stuck against trees and fences. I had thought about getting another bin to keep these bags in,but if I put the new bin out with these filled re usable bags--I was told by a council spokeswoman that the bin men will either take nothing- or my new bin as well. Depending how they feel.!!
