  1. Wednesday.  Black bin (general waste) one week and blue and brown bins (recycling and garden waste) the other week.

    Complained about fortnightly collections at first, but I am now so good at my recycling that I never fill my black bin (except at Christmas).

    (me being a bit smug!)


  2. Every second thursday - and usually not until around 1pm, which can be handy if I've forgotton to take the bins out in the morning I can nip back home during lunchtime and take them out.

  3. Dustbin man comes weekly on a Monday.

    Recycling man every 2 weeks on a Thursday.

  4. We have exactly the same arrangement as you - in every detail.   I would love them to pick up plastic too.....they do in other counties of UK.

  5. friday!!every second friday its recycling collection..

  6. Mine comes weekly on a Monday.  Bank Holidays don't seem to affect them too much anymore.

    Recycler come every Wednesday, collecting diffferent things each week.

  7. Um not everyone on this site lives in the same country as you do. As english speakers they often put our adds in the same area even though they claim to put them in different ones.

    So no i don't have a dustbin man.

  8. Nothing for me. I live in the middle of the Countryside and have to take my rubbish, recycling etc to a site 15 miles away.

  9. They arrive punctually on Thursdays and Mondays at 7.10.

    There is a paper collection every Tuesday - at about 11.00.

    Garden waste and un-cooked  vegetable peelings, old flowers etc. are collected on Mondays. Twice a month there is a collection of large items and metal is collected every two months.

    In the meantime, I can deposit aluminium, glass and pet bottles at my local supermarket.

    I don't live in the UK

  10. Tuesday

  11. our dustbin man and recycling man both come on a monday

  12. binman comes every monday and recyling the same day.

  13. every mondays at 6.46am and once a mouth for recycling men to come

  14. they both come every Wednesday

  15. Thursdays, 1 week for black bin 1 week for green bin, bottles, tins and newspapers. (recycling day)

  16. Yes.  Garbage and recycling are both picked up on Day 4 of our garbage collection cycle.

    This week, it's a Thursday.  After the Victoria Day holiday in May, it'll be Friday...

    I live in a Canadian city, if that helps for location.

  17. I AM a dustbin man. I come as often as I can, twice a week if I'm lucky.

  18. Every Wednesday

  19. The paper recylcing 1 is collected every other week (don't know which day), and the others are every thursday I think

  20. He doesn't - I live in the country and have to take it the local tip and pay for the privilege.

  21. Yes, every Wednesday.

    Papers,glass,cans and plastic for recycling alternate weeks.

    Garden refuse other alternate weeks.

  22. We get a black bin (general household) collection one week and blue and brown bin (blue = recyclable plastics etc..., brown = compostable waste) the next, always on a tuesday but a day late if its a bank holiday!

  23. General trash Tues, Thurs, and Sat. Recyclables on Thurs.

  24. They come every Tuesday for normal waste then they alternate the green garden waste with the cans/paper waste.

    They don't collect glass from us we take those to a bottle bank.

  25. Our dustmen come twice a day - usually between 0730-0930 and 16.30-1830, Sunday included - and they even work on Christmas days!

    Oh the joys of living in the City of Westminster in London !

  26. Every second Friday. It alternates with the recycling people coming. And soon we're going to have a bin dedicated to glass which ain't good 'cause the original bin fills up faaaaast!

  27. We have 3 bins which are emptied fortnightly, on alternate wednesdays. Green (household waste) , Brown (garden refuse) and Brown w Grey lid (recycling). The green and brown are emptied on the same day, the brown/grey on the following Wednesday.

    If you don't put enough in the recycle bin, you can get in trouble, but if you put the wrong thing in you get in more trouble and they won't empty the bin. No glass, no cardboard and no labels!

  28. yes every monday

  29. bit random, but every monday and same for recyclin, bank hols they come tuesday. garden rubbish is on a thursday and big items like doors or cookers or stuff is a friday(need to phone though for that).

  30. Our binmen come every Wednesday at 7am.They are joined by either the green waste or the paper lorry.

  31. he comes Everyday ........................................... up my A.$$!!
