Councils really need to be emptying these things more often.
Shudder to see what’s going to happen when the bottle+can refund machines inevitably fill up and aren’t collected.
Have you got no glass wheelie bins up there?
What’s wrong with people? If the bin is full GO BACK ANOTHER TIME.
They where running ads on the radio not to do this… Instead could they not run ads saying they will be adding extra capacity or running bottle banks at temp locations, maybe where they collect the Christmas Trees or something.
Brought all my empties to the bin a few days before Christmas. I’ll be good for a while.
It’s littering, someone in work was giving out last Christmas that they were fined after doing it. I think they read his car reg on the cctv?
Is this Greystones Tesco? I don’t think they ever bother to collect these bins
Lol we mad lol only in Ireland lol 😂🇮🇪🇮🇪💯💯💯
Afaik these collections are tendered out. There’s only one or two companies doing it in the country. They have reaction times built in to the contract but Christmas always a f. Fest.
System slow to change as it’s the backbone of repak. The sooner we get to a deposit scheme, the better.
😂😂😂😂 think of all the cars that drove all this shite down today to get the bottles out of the house. I am sure all those short diesel journeys were fantastic for the environment.
Can’t wait to see this happen next month with all the plastic refund machines.
Some sesh!
They told us our alcohol consumption was down this year
The dead soldiers.
We will remember them.
Well, some of them.
Sure I’ll have just the 1…..
7 bins and some of the car park later lol…
Ur a scumbag if you leave your bottles there
Well done, champ.
I see a box of Heineken, is it better than your local beers?
I’ve more than that in my garage
Puzzles me they are all standing not boxed or bagged.
People carry them unboxed etc in their cars?
Takes time to unload each bottle when you could take a box out and leave them in the box.
They should be fined
This is why people dont recycle ♻️
Or……..not enough!
That Aldi Cotes du Rhone is decent for 8.39 it must be said
Wait till they all get a fine in the post next week for littering 😁
People just place the bottles in. I always fling the bottle in at the metal pole inside and try to smash it. Apart from the fun, it also means that the bottle will take up less space. If I come to a full bin, I push the bottles in. Usually they are sloped up towards the hole, so there is lots of space behind if I push in. The bottles just fall back down the slope. I can usually get all my bottles into what appears to be a full bin, and even a few others have left outside.
So those bins are not as full as they look. Of course a lot of people just see the bottles up to the hole, and don’t even try to put anything in. If everyone smashed the bottles when the bin is still relatively empty, or pushed into a bin that appears to be full, they would get a lot more in.
This is the reason why I welcome the new deposit return system that’s coming in February
If the bins are full, take them the fuck home and bring them back when there’s space.
This is fine to me but I have a rake of cans in my boot. When are we gonna get paid to recycle?
I know it’s a nuisance when the bins are full but if they are hold onto your damn bottles for a week or two. Anyone recorded doing this should be fined for littering.
I hope all the people who dumped these are fined by the councils (those on council property!)
Years ago, I brought a few boxes to our local spot. I left an empty box behind by mistake after emptying them all.
A week or so later, I get a fine in the post with photos of me and my car reg leaving the box. I tried to argue it, but considering I did litter by leaving it, I paid the price. Something like 150 or 180 or something along those lines.
