TBH, it prob does happen to you, but you just don't notice.

At our old house the bins got collected twice a week at about 7am which was pretty annoying because I'd usually realise I'd forgotten to put it out.
I think Bin men cant which is why councils dont have them start before 7am. Recyling small trucks (or they are round here) arent heavy machiney and they start at 5am.
Unfortunately, the recyling make way more noise with their glass collection than the main bin wagon does.

Yeah, suck it up, and you wanting my number argument is not an argument at all, it is a totally different situation.
So, are you a bum?
Great post

those bloody milkmen and their clanking of bottles at 3.30am, along with the binmen, all living generations of their family's should be exterminated for their behavior.
(not a serious post) but this is how some replies sound to me, over some dedicated guys doing their jobs, I dont care what time they come,
I always pull my bags out for them in the morning, and give them a crate of lager at xmas/new year.
I have a cracking bunch of guys doing mine.

I start work at 17:00, my bins are emptied about 13:30. Called 999 when they woke me up but somehow I'M the time waster???

My council say to have your bin out by 7am so they don't collect before then.
They only work 4 days a week. Sounds like your bin men probably only work 3 days.

Could work less days to avoid causing major disruptions.
My bins are collected early and thank god they are, dont like being stuck behind them on collection day but i would like to be them even less.

You would think that. If they worked Tues-Fri then they wouldn't be a day late every time there is a bank holiday but no they have Friday off and work Friday as overtime every time it's a bank holiday week.

The binmen actually turn up to empty your bins? Lucky.
The thing I hate is that the bins from the flats across the road are emptied on a different day.
So every Tuesday without fail my wife shakes me until I'm awake, shouting in a panic that I've forgotten to take the bins out until I'm awake enough to remind her that our collection is on Thursday.
