Your collection day changes. A lot. Bank holidays? Your bin gets a holiday too. But it moves to a different day. Then back again. It’s a choose-your-own-adventure calendar. You need to check the council website every month or risk a bin full of stinky regret.
Christmas is the Olympics of rubbish. Extra collections. Special schedules. You can put out six bags of wrapping paper? Nope. Only three. And no glittery paper. That is recyclable only if you remove the tape and bows. The bin crews love this. They see your failed DIY attempts.
