Wheely bins for everyone

Flintshire moves to a fortnightly rubbish collection for non-food. This is the start of the squeeze to make you throw away less rubbish. This will prove a big issue for a lot, will fly tipping increase.

For the last 6 months I have been going through stuff "that might come in handy" from the last 25 years. It's amazing (sorry I mean embarrassing) what I have collected.

2 electric tile cutters
5 sets of tree loppers
1 large car gearbox
3 circular saw tables ( you may think why)
5 rakes
4 electric drils
 5 battery drills
4 shovels
4 forks
screws, bolts and nuts by the 1000.
Over a ton of wood offcuts (for the wood fire)

Steel and old electrical tools down to the skip, precious metals down to Chadwicks Sandycroft. Last trip to Chadwicks brought in £70 for aluminium scrap.
And of course stuff off loaded on the ubiquitous Ebay

The above measures by FCC have to be taken due to EU directives.

Quote "Cllr Tony Sharps said: “Now we are going one step forward and making the service cleaner, more hygienic and better for the customer .
“Let’s catch up with Coronation Street, they’ve had wheelie bins for 20 years.”
