Bin collections update

THURROCK Council believes it may be able to carry out some rubbish collections tomorrow and the rest of the week.

A spokesman for the authority said that while brown bins, for kitchen and garden waste, have been suspended until Monday, people whose blue and green bins were due to be collected today and yesterday are asked to leave them out and "the council will endeavour to collect them by the end of Saturday".
 

The spokesman added: "People whose collections for recycling or residual waste are due on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday are asked to put their bins out as normal the council will we will endeavour to collect them on the due day."

The council will post updates online on the "Ready For Winter" section on its website www.thurrock.gov.uk.

As well as on its Twitter feed, twitter.com/thurrockcouncil, and Facebook page, www.facebook.com/thurrockcouncil.

TBC u are taking the mickey out of residents like me who have payed £1100 last year for services U can collect my bin on Friday or pick the rest up of the floor ! I had to go work in this weather to pay your taxes yet your bin men are wrapped in bubblewrap cant do anything else. Get ya **** in gear NOW ! and nice to see the area around TBC offices & carparks all cleared & gritted but corringham & SLH town was Very dangerous .

They were out collecting today, but for some reason couldn't be bothered to empty my bin even thought it is my regular collection day. Have just reported it to be told they are on catch up and they may collect it by the end of the week - yeah right - i'll probably have to wait another couple of week, TBC are totally useless.
