I went for a walk around the Westmoreland ward this morning and was shocked to find that households in 23 different streets had rubbish outside. I have reported each occurrence of this to BANES to arrange for the waste to be collected before it is spread down the street.
It is important that everyone takes responsibility for disposing of their own waste, which means that NO rubbish should be put on the footpath outside your properties until the day of collection.
Waste bags put out on days other than that of your scheduled collection encourages animals and birds to rip them open and in the case of recycling can result in it being spread over a large area when we have strong winds.
If you are unsure which day your waste is collected, please either check on the BANES website or contact us.
We are committed to ensuring the Westmoreland ward is the cleanest, safest area to live and would ask residents to help us to achieve this.
